Thanks, Brad. I created a CMake/vtkSharedLibraryPathInfo.cxx using that code and it works great.
Now my CMakeLists.txt has a TRY_RUN that sets SHARED_LDPATH to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH-equivalent for
the platform.
Sebastien: I can put this into VTK cvs. Should the variable that holds the info be called
VTK_SHARED_LDPATH or CMAKE_SHARED_LDPATH?
