Lots.  All related to NetCDF.  Here's the first few:

Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:
  "_vtk__H5Adelete", referenced from:
      _NC4_rename_att in libvtkNetCDF.a(nc4attr.c.o)
      _NC4_del_att in libvtkNetCDF.a(nc4attr.c.o)
      _put_att_grpa in libvtkNetCDF.a(nc4hdf.c.o)
  "_vtk__H5check_version", referenced from:
      _nc4_create_file in libvtkNetCDF.a(nc4file.c.o)
      _nc4_open_file in libvtkNetCDF.a(nc4file.c.o)

That's what I was looking for, thanks!  I think it'll fix my issue.

That explains why if I go back to using 5.8 but add in libvtkhdf5 I get the same link error.

It must be a mistake that that's commented.  I'll try uncommenting it...

Thanks!
