[vtkusers] Common/Makefile problem

[William A. Hoffman]

The problem happens because you specified a directory instead of a library
for the PYTHON_LIBRARY variable in CMake.  This should be set to the full path to the
python library.  Or, it should be set to the -framework command for python if there
is one.
