[vtkusers] Building VTK 5.0.2 with CygWin

[Hendrik Belitz]

Hi David,

thank you very much for your comments. My problem had a rather simple 
solution. Although I used the cygwin CMake for project configuration, I 
did not realized that the normmal CMake win32 was also in accesible via 
my $PATH. Seems like this messed up some things, project building works 
flawless now.

Greetings
 Hendrik
