[vtkusers] Help compiling on Mac PPC with OS X

[Paul Schmiedge]

Hi John,

I recently succeeded in creating an X-only build on Panther, and I was 
also suffering from link errors at first.  What I ended up doing was 
manually changing these two lines:

OPENGL_gl_LIBRARY: -framework OpenGL
OPENGL_glu_LIBRARY: -framework AGL

To the OGL libraries that go with Apple's X11:

OPENGL_gl_LIBRARY: /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.a
OPENGL_glu_LIBRARY: /usr/X11R6/lib/libGLU.a

See if that helps.
