[vtkusers] Fail to generate libQVTKWidgetPlugin.so

[Weiguang Guan]

I see your point. Actually, I kept the default value (OFF) for 
BUILD_SHARED_LIBS in cmake. I guess it's building libQVTKWidgetPlugin.so 
instead of libQVTKWidgetPlugin.a because this is a plugin. All other vtk 
libs are static libs.

The problem occured on my 64bit linux box running on SGI Prism only, I 
don't get any problem while building vtk5.0 on other 32 bit linux. There 
is difference in c++ compiler version (3.2 vs 3.4), not sure this is the 
cause.
