I found two problems that may be of interest to the developers. They could
be my problems and not yours, but just in case.

(1) When using VTK there is a problem with the include directory if you use
VTK build from source. I built VTK5.10.1 from source, if you follow the
standard build procedures for an in source build (cmake . then make) or
out-of-soure build (mkdir build; cd build; cmake ..; make) the header files
remain in subdirectories thus when libMesh calls them in VTK_IO.C it does
not find them. Everything works great if you use a VTK package (I had no
problems with VTK-5.8 installed via a package manager). If any one knows
how to build VTK with a single include directory I would like to know how,
I couldn't find much, but I didn't look that hard either.

(2) I received the following linking error, with many like them, with the
latest trunk from SVN. I did not receive these errors with 0.8-rc1. This is
likely due to me using Cmake to build my own applications, but I can't find
any difference in the include and library directories between the latest
trunk and 0.8-rc1.
