I'm using Itcl with VTK. No problems with Windows, you might run itcl.exe
and VTK will be loaded on the fly as a DLL on the fly the catch function.
Much more problematic with Unix, as you have to run the 'vtk' program.
Basically, you will have to recompile this 'vtk' (see tcl/tkinit.c)
front-end by including all necessary entry point for Itcl. I have done it a
long it ago, I'll have to write a page on that topic and maybe a patch that
might trigger itcl support in 'configure' (I'll do that with 2.3 when I get
it).
