[Paraview] 64-bit version for MacOS?

[Michael Jackson]

You will probably have to use ParaView from CVS "Head" in order to fix  
the "Carbon/Cocoa" thing. There is a quick patch you can do to a stock  
ParaView 3.6.2 to fix the problem if you want. <http://www.bluequartz.net/cgi-bin/gitweb/gitweb.cgi?p=ParaView3.git;a=blob;f=CMakeLists.txt;h=34aee621d3888e3e5afea9fc2063963ab4dc0e53;hb=HEAD

The download from nokia should be just fine.
