The VTK port does not currently include the hybrid classes (including
vtkLandmarkTransform), but it would be easy for me to toggle them on.
Also, the current port only builds for Cocoa windowing. I have a
change that should allow choosing any of the available window systems
(X11, Cocoa, or Carbon). You should also be able to use the base
vtkRenderWindow class without specifying the use of X11. That way,
you'll use the window system chosen for VTK automatically. Can you
please file a bug at <http://bugzilla.opendarwin.org/> with all the
compiler errors you're getting?

Thanks,
Chris
