[Paraview] XDMF data set not showing, or crashes

Hi,

We have a 2D Uniform grid data set in XDMF format that we are trying to 
visualize with ParaView. The data is stored in a 1MB HDF5 data set. The 
(light) meta xdmf file is attached to this email.

I am seeing some problems when trying to load the data-- usually 
ParaView either crashes, or the data does not show. I have tried the PV 
3.8.1 Windows binaries as well as building ParaView from source that I 
pulled a few days ago from the git://paraview.org/ParaView.git repository.

After loading the data and hitting Apply, the 3D render window will be 
empty. What I've noticed is that the Y-range of the Bounds will 
sometimes be extremely large. For example here is a snapshot from the 
Information tab:


Are these known issues with ParaView?

Or perhaps the data is mal-formed, I am new to XDMF, so it'd help to know if there is an error in the .xmf file.

HDF5 tools like HDFView and h5dump don't report any anomalies on the HDF5 file that goes with the heavy data.

thanks
