Thanks for replying Greg.

I don't follow "whether it has been sent upstream" but suppose I 
would if I'd created a package and had it absorbed into the packages 
collection.


I have now applied the NetBSD patches for vtk 4.2 that were 
applicable to 5.10.1 and attempted to compile it again.  It went 
further than before, judging by the percentage figure displayed and 
the time it took for make to stop, but curiously it stopped with the 
same error--see below.

I guess I'll just have to try to get to grips with the source code, 
or even resort to using Linux.
