ITK currently does not support an install option.  It is a library
designed to be used by other developers.  It is designed to be used
directly from its build tree.

The problem is that the system zlib and libpng might be the wrong version
and produce problems we can't duplicate.  Since the libraries are small
and provide functionality that isn't system specific, there is no problem
distributing the correct version with ITK code.
