All these bugs have been fixed by kitware and/or the vtk community.  Is
there a reason you can't use the newest vtk?

I vaguely remember this one... can you show the code where that error
is?  It's a simple fix.  IIRC, you just need to remove the 'enum', check
the declaration of NSOpenGLPixelFormatAttribute in Apple's headers.
