[vtkusers] Compilation errors: cannot convert from 'int' to 'vtkGeoImageNode *'

[Jeff Baumes]

This is a VS 2010 issue. VTK 5.4.2 (and the latest VTK from the
repository) does not yet officially support VS 2010.

The following commit from a few months ago probably addresses your problem:

commit 82164219d7e9df310e5b8a4b59162b572e364509
Author: Dave Partyka <dave.partyka at kitware.com>

    COMP: VS10 complains if you try to initialize a pair defined by a
point and an int with NULL.
