[vtkusers] wglMakeCurrentFailed (even in sample MFC apps!)

[Mark Wyszomierski]

I just wanted to confirm that calling Finalize() from my
vtkRenderWindow object in my destroy window handler stopped those
wglMakeCurrent dump errors. Maybe this can be added to the MFC
example, it occurred on a variety of ATI cards I used (all Nvidia were
ok).

Thanks!
Mark
