I think in this case you should be able to do what I suggested,

if(vtkWrappingTools_ENABLED)
  do_wrap_hierarchy()
endif()

If the wrapping tools module was enabled, that probably means
something wants the hierarchy files too in order to wrap the VTK
modules. This seems like a reasonable exception where you can change
it, at the point when modules are build the module is either on or off
and so this would work reliably.

You could make whatever check you had for wrapped languages collapse
down into the above if (as they will all depend upon/enable the
wrapping tools module). Sorry if I was unclear earlier.
