[Insight-users] ITKWikiExamples requiring VTK-5.5

[Juan Cardelino]

In addtion, I was able to sneak into the ITKVTKGlue directory and was
able to compile it without problems. Then I extracted the required
example and compiled standalone against that ITKVTKGlue and worked.
I don't know what is really going on.
Thanks!
