[Paraview] paraview - releases from 07/07 and 07/11 - are they broken?

[John Biddiscombe]

FYI:  The 2.2 release binaries died with a stack overflow on startup on 
Jean's laptop here - but worked on my desktop. a cvs update and build on 
my desktop died with the same stack overflow on my desktop, but a clean 
checkout and built on the 2-2 branch worked ok (on the desktop). Some 
problem when creating the gui widgets triggering events recursively 
during creation it seemed like. No idea why it worked and failed on 
differnt machines. (all XP. Linux seems to be ok)
