[vtkusers] Problem building TCL and Python wrappers for VTK 4.0 on a PC.

I get the following message:
Help!
I downloaded the vtkNightlySrc.zip file for VTK 4.0, used CMake (what a
great program!) to generate the VC6.0 projects and proceeded to compile.

When I set VTK_WRAP_PYTHON and VTK_WRAP_TCL to ON and specify the Python
and TCL/TKL directories for includes and libraries I get the 
Error outlined below. If they are set to OFF everything compiles OK
(except, obviously, no Python or TCL/TKL). 
Two things puzzle me:
1) I have no directory called: 'C:\vtk\vtkbin\Common\OFF\Release\...'
2)  C:/vtk/VTK/Common/vtkXMLFileOutputWindow.h exists and the includes
called by it also exist in the same directory.

Can anyone help?

Many thanks in advance.
