[vtkusers] vtkFlRenderWindowInteractor on Mac OS X

[Feng Ding]

I just set to use carbon to build VTK. The example program of
vtkFlRenderWindowInteractor now can be executed, but it shows nothing
(should display a cone in its window). I'm not sure whether there's a
flaw in vtkFlRenderWindowInteractor::draw(). I'll try to find out. But
I'm not familiar with both Carbon and Cocoa, it will take some time.

Do you have other recommendation for bridging vtk and fltk?
