[vtkusers] Deprecated includes in VTK

[Mike Jackson]

I compiled VTK 5 using the HEAD of CVS from last night. I tried  
static Libraries, but that died after a while. So I tried Dynamic  
Libraries with COCOA ON, CARBON OFF, and X OFF. Testing ON and  
Examples OFF. This seemed to compile ok.

The point of all that was to get the vtkDecimate code from CVS/ 
Patented/Attic so that we can use it in our pipeline (vtkDecimatePro  
gives inferior results for our data set. We need to be able to  
control the aspect ratio of the generated triangles). When I try to  
compile vtkDecimate.h I get link errors where the linker can not find  
the vtkDecimate::New symbol. System is OS X 10.4.3 and Xcode 2.2 (gcc  
4.0.1). I tried some other variations of this, like building static  
instead of dynamic libraries, then I would get other linker errors,  
like the _MPProcessors symbol not found.

Is it really this hard to compile VTK?
