[Paraview] Building 3.2.1 on AIX

[Sean Ziegeler]

I did the first three.  I haven't tried -D_LARGE_FILES, but I suspect 
that isn't the problem.  I almost looks like some sort of odd 
template/name mangling/linking issue.

Also, I've compiled VTK before without (too much) trouble.  This seems 
to be a problem specific to ParaView.

But, like I said, I'm running out of ideas.  I will try that define 
option and see what happens...

Thanks,
Sean
