[Paraview] 3.4.0 compilation broken due to xdfm / old hdf5

[Berk Geveci]

I fixed the cvs head so that it compiles with 4.3 after ParaView 3.4
release. I am wondering if the issue Dominik is running into is still
there on cvs head though. If hdf5 was pulling in some headers, and now
it doesn't, some things may still be broken. Dominik, how hard is it
for you to try cvs head?
