[vtkusers] VTK compile error: gcc 3.32, Solaris 10

[Francois Bertel]

Ok, this is the faulty line in your system glx.h:

extern void (*glXGetProcAddress(const GLubyte *procname))();

there is () instead of (void). On by default, in C, () means (int).

For example, on Linux, I have /usr/include/GL/glx.h has:
extern void (*glXGetProcAddressARB(const GLubyte *procName))(void);

I'll see how I can work around this wrong system definition.
