[IGSTK-Users] compiling IGSTK with MicronTracker support

[Andinet Enquobahrie]

Dear all,

I have committed a cmake script to IGSTK CVS that parses the version of 
the MTC
library. Plus, I made changes to the cmake configuration  to enforce MTC 
version 2.6 or later.

During cmake configuration, if an older version is specified, an error 
message will be
displayed.

Let me know if you encounter any problems.
