[vtkusers] vtkStandardNewMacro problems with MSVC9

[Karthik Krishnan]

My guess is that you might be trying to use the classes on
windows without exporting them... the __declspec(dllimport) /
export thingie.

You must explicitly export the classes and the global functions
to be made publicly accessible.

See how VTK_FILTERING_EXPORT is used for instance... On unix,
this expands to nothing.
