[Paraview] EnSight Gold reader, bug 6003 and VTK Composite Redesign

[Berk Geveci]

I suggest updating to the current cvs first. If it is still crashing,
it is worth tracking this down because all those changes are already
in paraview (as of 2 weeks ago). If this is still happening on cvs, it
would be very useful if you could provide an example dataset.

The way composite data is stored is also subject to upcoming changes (see http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/Composite_Data_Redesign). I think that both will greatly affect the EnSight (and all other) readers, so my question is whether it does make sense to put an effort on solving that bug #6003 with the current code. If these VTK changes make their way into ParaView soon and the new logic eliminates this bug, I would rather not spend my time working on code that will soon be deprecated. What do you say?
