[vtkusers] help including python support for VTK 5.0/OS X 10.4.5

[henrikw at hgu.mrc.ac.uk]

After a bit more messing about today I can answer my own question, though I
never did get it to work from scratch. VTK 5.0 isn't supported by fink either so
I am not the only one.

I installed the fink package vtk-py23 and it seems to work a treat.
