To better support MPI testing, I have had to make a few changes
to the CMakeLists files in ParaView that will require modifications to
the cmakecache. 


The following cache variables are now used:

# Configure MPI testing support.
# FLAGS used and set for MPI testing
# VTK_MPIRUN_EXE - full path to mpirun command
# VTK_MPI_NUMPROC_FLAG - flag that is used to tell this mpirun how many procs to start
# VTK_MPI_PREFLAGS - flags used directly before process to be run by mpirun
# VTK_MPI_POSTFLAGS - flags used after all other flags by mpirun
# So, tests will be run something like this:
# ${VTK_MPIRUN_EXE} ${VTK_MPI_NUMPROC_FLAG} 2 ${VTK_MPI_PREFLAGS} executable ${VTK_MPI_POSTFLAGS}
#

The following variables are old, and need to be fixed in caches for things to work:

VTK_MPI_PREFLAGS 
VTK_MPI_POSTFLAGS 


If you are running a dashboard, you will want to fix this or many tests will fail.
Thanks.
