Cesar,

	Did you read this thread on vtk-developers:

http://public.kitware.com/pipermail/vtk-developers/2005-May/003283.html

	This option is really meant for advanced user or packager, but if you 
are really sure what you are doing, then have a look at :

	VTK/Utilities/vtk_freetype.h

And uncomment the line:

//#include "vtkToolkits.h"

HTH
Mathieu
Ps: This is not tested by kitware, if this does not work, then do not 
report a bug. Instead use the library shipped with VTK (this is one is 
tested nightly).
