It is necessary to build ParaView from source in order to run it in 
parallel.  Then when you run CMake, turn on VTK_USE_MPI.  When you ask 
CMake to run configure again, it should find appropriate values for 
MPI_INCLUDE_PATH and MPI_LIBRARY.  If they have ***NOTFOUND values, you'll 
have to set them yourself.
