Unfortunately this feature is not available for now in CMake, you'll 
have to wait for CMake 2.4.4.

Another option is to build the static libs of VTK (this is already 
done), and build against the *build* tree (or install in let say 
/opt/vtk/). It will use different link path and thus avoid the problem 
of linking to shared libs.
