I had to make two changes to gdcmPython/CMakeLists.txt to get this to build:
1. add INCLUDE(${VTK_CMAKE_DIR}/vtkWrapPython.cmake) after ENDIF(NOT
VTK_WRAP_PYTHON)
2. change TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES to link to vtkCommonPythonD and
vtkIOPythonD (this is the new VTK convention: vtkCommonPython is only
the importable part, vtkCommonPythonD contains the actual linkable
code)

Unless you've done this already, you should think about adapting
vtkGDCM to follow the same conventions.

After doing a build on the INSTALL target, and copying the gdcmPython
dir from the build dir to the install dir, I can import and
instantiate the VTK modules / classes.

Thanks,
Charl
