package_specific_setup () {
    chmod 600 Utilities/vtktiff/tif_fax3sm.c
}

package_specific_register () {
    export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${INSTALL_PATH}/lib/vtk-5.6:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
    export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=${INSTALL_PATH}/lib/vtk-5.6:${DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH}
}

The source is 5.8, but when it exports vtk, it's vtk-5.6. However, in build script, there is a line saying
# Once you've set up VTK, you need to manually set the following
# environment variable in order for Viper to find it:
#
# export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${INSTALL_PATH}/lib/vtk-5.4:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}

Based on my personal experience, only exporting vtk-5.8 can make dolfin successfully built.

Thanks for the report, but this has already been fixed in the development version.
