[vtkusers] Installing python wrapper on mac

[David Gobbi]

Hi Matthew,

You might get more information about the library failure by running:
  otool -L bin/vtkHashSource-6.0

My guess is that the problem occurs because of "i386;x86_64",
If you use "x86_64" alone, then the install should work.  If it doesn't,
you can try setting the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable
to the location of your VTKBuild/lib directory before "make install".
