Has anyone had any trouble building Paraview with the latest nVidia GL 
libraries?  On both RH4 and RH5, we've not been able to compile Paraview 
3.4.0 (or 3.2.1) against nVidia driver 180.22 or 180.25.    We can build 
against nVidia driver 173.14.xx.   Also, if we build on a system that 
has driver 173.14.xx and then try to execute 'paraview' on a system with 
a 180.22 driver, we also get a floating point exception error.   

The compile failure is a floating point exception and looks like this:
