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

[Andres Munarriz]

Hi everyone,

Thank you for your prompt replies, I have a project developed using
VTK 4.2 on a windows box which I'm gong to contnue, thus for legacy
reasons I wanted to use the same release.  Then again I find that you
agree that VTK 5.0 is the way to go. So I guess I'll simply migrate
the project to the new release.  Once again thank you for your
response.

Regards,
Andres E. Munarriz Soto
