[Insight-users] Cannot compile itk 1.6 from CVS repository on Windows XP VC++ 6.0

Cannot compile itk 1.6 from CVS repository (checked out at 19.07.2004) 
on Windows XP VC++ 6.0

Dear all,

I am a newby to itk and have a problem to build itk.

My steps were:
1. Download of itk 1.6 release  => build ok
2. Download of itk-applications => got link errors due to itkpng <-> 
vtkpng mangling
3. In the itk-users-list I found an entry saying: no workaround 
available, get the cvs version 
(http://public.kitware.com/pipermail/insight-users/2004-February/006646.html) 

4. Fetched cvs version 1.6 and here we are:
On building itkvnl (Win32 Debug) the following error appears:
--------------------Konfiguration: itkvnl - Win32 Debug--------------------
Kompilierung läuft...
vnl_alloc.cxx
vnl_block.cxx
vnl_math.cxx
X:\01_GraphicLibs\itk\CVS\Insight\Utilities\vxl\core\vnl\vnl_math.cxx(186) 
: error C2065: 'finitel' : nichtdeklarierter Bezeichner

(It says: finitel is not declared)

I was wondering if anybody else experienced this kind of problem (found 
nothing appropriate in the user-list).
Since the most problems arise due to a misconfigured Cmake 
configuration, I append the file 'CMakeCache.txt' Cmake generated to 
this post.

Could you please help me out? (Sorry, if this is a well known or even 
trivial issue, but I didn't find any hints anywhere.)

Thank's a lot,
  Heidi
