[vtkusers] Newbie: building VTK on OSX

[Glen Lehmann]

Hi Vivek,

These paths are for the Carbon and Cocoa builds.  I haven't looked at X11 on
the Mac for a long, long while now and I don't recall if X11 is built
against the framework OpenGL libraries or those found in /usr/lib/X11R6
(can't check right now, I'm booted up in windows).

My guess is that the X11 libraries you build VTK against will depend on what
version of OS X you're running.

Cheers,

Glen
