[CMake] [vtk-developers] VTK-5-2 and Qt 4.4 build config on OSX

[clinton at elemtech.com]

It shouldn't make a difference to the cmake variables.  The debug libraries 
get installed into the same frameworks.  And cmake references the frameworks, 
not the libraries within the frameworks.  To run your application with the 
debug libraries in the frameworks, you set the environment variable 
DYLD_IMAGE_SUFFIX="_debug".
