[vtkusers] from VTK 4.0 to 4.2

[Mathieu Malaterre]

imho,
	Did you read:

http://www.imm.dtu.dk/pubdb/views/edoc_download.php/502/pdf/imm502.pdf

	If not, you better read it first.
	Otherwise, make sure you change the path to vtk in your 
newproject/CMakeCache.txt to the correct one: Restart cmake in your 
*own* project and make sure nothing is pointing toward your old VTK 4.0 
installation.
