[vtkusers] CMake Error: CMAKE_WORDS_BIGENDIAN

[KenLists]

Hey Randy,

That code was just checked in today. My first suggestion would be to do
an update on your CMake and rebuild just to be sure you got the entire
checkin. Then see if the problem is still there. If so let me know and
I'll track it down. 

Thanks
Ken
