[vtkusers] Build from GIT Master Linker errors

[ianl]

Hopefully this is an easy one. I am attempting to build the latest version of
VTK from the master head in git. I get several instances of the following
linker warnings and errors when building the Debug mode Win32 build in
Visual Studio 2010 SP1 on Windows 7 64 bit.

I am building VTK according to the instructions in the FAQ and I have had no
problems in the past. I can successfully build the 5.8 branch and I have an
older master snapshot dating back to October that also builds ok. As far as
I can see on the dashboard, the nightly build completes without errors, so I
must be missing something. I currently need to do a master build as I need
the fix for GPU support for ATI/AMD cards which as far as I am aware has not
made it out of master yet. I have tried a selection of older versions back
to 21st November when there was another GPU renderer fix which I would like
and I encounter the same problems.

Anyone have any ideas? Thanks,
Ian Lindsay
