[vtkusers] Qt 4.1 Success anyone?

The font bugs could be a conflict between your system freetype library 
and the freetype library that VTK builds with.
Try setting VTK_USE_SYSTEM_FREETYPE to ON.
Some people see this problem, and some don't, because of what freetype 
version they have installed on their system.
Whether VTK works with the system freetype depends also on which version 
of freetype you have installed.
If you're unlucky, you'll get unresolved freetype symbols when linking 
VTK to an executable.
Another option is to configure Qt to not use the system freetype, but 
you'll get less pretty fonts.
