[vtkusers] problem compiling VTK 5.10.0 rc2 on a Mac

[A A]

My build configuration is just like yours but still fails. Not sure
yet why they differ. However, I was able to get to build by changing
lines 62-68 of the file Charts/vtkContextScenePrivate.h to read:

//#ifdef VTK_CONST_REVERSE_ITERATOR_COMPARISON
//  typedef std::vector<vtkAbstractContextItem*>::const_reverse_iterator
//    const_reverse_iterator;
//#else
  typedef std::vector<vtkAbstractContextItem*>::reverse_iterator
    const_reverse_iterator;
//#endif

which would be the same as undefining
VTK_CONST_REVERSE_ITERATOR_COMPARISON, since for some reason that
constant is being defined when it shouldn't.
