I just built the latest 6.0rc3, without any config options - and it
built fine.
My next step will be to try to build the QVTK library.

There may be some linking issues, because VTK linked its dependency
libraries. Maybe I will test the VTK_USE_SYSTEM_XX-options.

I have no vtk6.mk yet, but my steps were straight forward:
1. create a native VTK6 build
2. Extract the VTK5 tryrun-file created by src/vtk-1-tryrun.patch
3. run cmake \
-C path_to_vtk-tryrun.cmake \
-DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=path_to_mxe/usr/i686-pc-mingw32/share/cmake/mxe-conf.cmake
\
-DVTKCompileTools_DIR=path_to_native_vtk6_build \
path_to_vtk6_sources

Good luck

Martin
