hi!

i am trying to compile VTK 4.4 on windows, but running into serious 
trouble. i believe the cause to be that i don't have any idea what

	PYTHON_LIBRARY

is supposed to be set to. the help for this item in ccmake lists lots 
of files that could be targets, but i don't have any of them (i have 
the Python 2.4 install binary for windows, and also tried Python 2.3 
install binary).

PYTHON_LIBRARY seems to expect a file (rather than a directory) so i 
tried setting it to Python24.lib (and Python23.lib) - but this produces 
lots of linking errors and eventually the build fails.

what am i supposed set this to?

thanks a lot!

	nik
