[Insight-developers] Longstanding warnings in ThirdParty/MetaIO/src/MetaIO

[Sean McBride]

Hi all,

For several days now, both my ITK and VTK dashboards have this warning.  I think whoever changed this code has not noticed the new warnings:

<http://www.cdash.org/CDash/viewBuildError.php?type=1&buildid=1464266>
<http://www.cdash.org/CDash/viewBuildError.php?type=1&buildid=1463568>
