[vtk-developers] err building BCB5 shared

[dean.inglis at camris.ca]

A few more details about the on-going battle
of the Borland linker saga and a new vtk build bug:

turning off Cg shaders from a static build on BCB6 and BCB5
allowed a build to completion with all cxx tests.  Turning
off/on legacy remove/silent or debug leaks did not
resolve the linker error when building with Cg shaders.  

Interestingly, as of the December 28 cvs update, my static
build on a Win2k Pro, hyper threaded Intel P4 machine (Proximal, BCB5)
is now linking successfully while a BCB5 build on a regular 
P4 XP system (Superior) with identical CMakeCache (CMake 2.0.6) settings
was still failing.  I am waiting for info on the linker error
from Borland newsgroups. 

Meanwhile, I am trying a shared build on the XP box and am
getting the following error:
