[vtkusers] Building VTK 4.2 on Mac OS X 10.4.x

[Mike Jackson]

If at all possible, can you use VTK 5.0 stable? This builds with out  
any problems on OS X 10.4.x. If you have to use VTK 4.4 for legacy  
reasons then you will need to look back in the mail list archives for  
the solution. I vaguely remember it involved lots of search and  
replace for that method.
