[vtkusers] strange cmake error building VTK 5.0.0 on OSX Tiger

[wind]

I figured out the error. It had to do with CMake. It's not enough to  
download the binary distribution of CMake. I had to build from source  
code using the binary distribution. Once I did that, the cmake  
entered its configuration normally and generated whatever stuff it  
was going to do. I'm building VTK right now.

Thanks,
