[vtkusers] VTK-6.1.0 migration problem

[Marcus D. Hanwell]

OK, maybe VS 2012 improved things in this area (I haven't used it, but
am not aware of new features). Glad you got it working, normally
Windows will require the DLLs to be located in the same directory, or
in a directory listed in the PATH variable.
