[vtkusers] VTK, MacOS and X11

[Johnny C. Norris II]

No, I just ran cmake and then make.  It seemed to rebuild the 
vtkRendering lib, and a quick scan of the generated makefiles didn't 
turn up any "-framework OpenGL" references.  I reran everything the way 
you suggested, but I still get the same undefined reference errors.

BTW, I don't have administrative privileges, nor do I have local access 
to either of these Macs, so I don't think that fink will help me.

Thanks,
John
