In the Fink package for vtk-5.0.4, the following cmake flag takes care 
of the GL dylib reimportation bug:

-DOPENGL_gl_LIBRARY:STRING="-L/usr/X11R6/lib -lGL -dylib_file 
/System/Library/Frameworks/OpenGL.framework/Versions/A/Libraries/libGL.dylib:/System/Library/Frameworks/OpenGL.framework/Versions/A/Libraries/libGL.dylib"

No idea if more recent versions of vtk need something different.
