[Paraview] A new problem compiling Paraview 3.10 on linux RHEL 5 clusters with Visit Bridge

Hi, 
I'm making some progress, but now I'm stuck on including the visit silo reader.  Our silo library seems to depend on HDF5.  

If I set the following variables: 
VISIT_BUILD_READER_Silo:BOOL=ON
SILO_INCLUDE_DIR:PATH=/usr/gapps/visit/silo/4.8/linux-x86_64_gcc-4.1/include
SILO_LIBRARY:FILEPATH=/usr/gapps/visit/silo/4.8/linux-x86_64_gcc-4.1/lib/libsiloh5.a

then the linker fails with some HDF5 unresolved symbols in libsiloh5.a.  What I'd like to do is add  -L/usr/gapps/visit/hdf5/1.8.4/linux-x86_64_gcc-4.1/lib -lhdf5 to the link flags but I cannot find a place to add these.  I tried the following: 

CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS:STRING=   -L/usr/global/tools/Kitware/Paraview/3.10/chaos_4_x86_64_ib/lib   -L/usr/gapps/visit/mili/1.10.0/linux-x86_64_gcc-4.1/lib -lmili  /usr/gapps/visit/hdf5/1.8.4/linux-x86_64_gcc-4.1/lib/libhdf5.so

however, this gives me a mysterious error

[  1%] Generating ../H5lib_settings.c
cd /nfs/tmp2/rcook/Paraview/3.10/build/ParaView-3.10.0/build/VTK/Utilities/vtkhdf5/src && ../../../../bin/H5make_libsettings > /nfs/tmp2/rcook/Paraview/3.10/build/ParaView-3.10.0/build/VTK/Utilities/vtkhdf5/H5lib_settings.c
../../../../bin/H5make_libsettings: error while loading shared libraries: libhdf5.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
make[2]: *** [VTK/Utilities/vtkhdf5/H5lib_settings.c] Error 127

I assume this is a conflict between the internal HDF5 support in Paraview and the HDF5 that our silo library was compiled against.  I am not a silo or hdf5 expert.  Can someone help me untangle this?  Thanks!
