Well, you're right... ${CGAL_USE_FILE} appends the path to CGAL modules.. The 
problem comes from me since I was using the CMAKE_MODULE_PATH as a variable 
(and not list):

  INCLUDE(${CMAKE_MODULE_PATH}/ChechSomething.cmake) 

(and surprisingly, cmake (2.8.11.2) does not report a fatal error).

Replacing my code by simply

  INCLUDE(ChechSomething) 

Solve the issue without manually resetting the variable.
