Ah, thank you both. The problem was indeed coming from building my
project against an old build of ITK that didn't use the new VTK.

I don't suppose there is a way to catch this condition and throw an
understandable error? The error was very confusing - I rebuilt VTK
several times since the errors only mentioned VTK libs - but as you
saw the problem was with ITK's VTK, requiring an update/rebuild of
ITK. I imagine this won't be a rare condition, as others may do
exactly as I did and update VTK and then wonder why they are getting
VTK errors, forgetting that the ITK build relies on VTK itself.
