[vtkusers] VTK install on MacOS X 10.3.9

If you are trying to switch the value of BUILD_SHARED_LIBS from OFF to 
ON (or vice versa) you need to re-configure with CMake (or ccmake) to 
change its value. You also need to start over with a clean (empty) 
binary tree and rebuild everything after this change.

Hope this helps,
David
