[Paraview] building paraview 3.98.1 with the pgi compiler (13.3.0-12.5.0)

[Hong Yi]

Thanks, Robert. I have been working with Suzanne on this issue. The line in vtkConfigure.h is:
#define VTK_CONST_REVERSE_ITERATOR_COMPARISON

We changed it to be 
#define VTK_CONST_REVERSE_ITERATOR_COMPARISON 1
but after reconfiguring and regenerating, the line changes back to the original "#define VTK_CONST_REVERSE_ITERATOR_COMPARISON"

Because of this, rebuilding ParaView on Titan with pgi compiler generates the same error. 

Any further suggestions on this issue?

Thanks,
Hong

We have seen this issue with const_reverse_iterators before on older
versions of gcc. What is the value of
VTK_CONST_REVERSE_ITERATOR_COMPARISON in the build directory file
Common/Core/vtkConfigure.h?
