[Paraview] versions > 2.4 crashing painfully

[Dominik Szczerba]

It crashes on all my files so it's pretty reproducible. I tried running
it under gdb but seems PV was not compiled with -g:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0xb3ce71f2 in ?? ()
(gdb) bt
#0  0xb3ce71f2 in ?? ()
#1  0xb5bf6d1c in ?? ()
#2  0x0809cb60 in ?? ()
#3  0x00000000 in ?? ()

I don't want to compile 2.6 due to GUI compilaiton problems. I will try
to build 2.9 in debug version and post the gdb results.

regards,
Dominik
