C++ can be problematic for libraries due to ABI and mangling issues.  It's safest to build all your libraries and executable with the same compiler, same flags, and same standard library.  You say you got HDF from homebrew... can you know which compiler, flag, and C++ library they used?  Try to match your ITK build to that.

Cheers,
