[Paraview] writing block data in parallel for vtk readers

[Cook, Rich]

Cannot build 4.2-RC1.  I get this error.  I’ve reported it before, but now it halts the build, so it needs to get fixed and I don’t know the answer: 

Compiling /usr/local/tools/paraview-opengl-4.2.0/src/ParaView-v4.2.0-Build/lib/site-packages/vtk/web/testing.py ...
SyntaxError: ('invalid syntax', ('/usr/local/tools/paraview-opengl-4.2.0/src/ParaView-v4.2.0-Build/lib/site-packages/vtk/web/testing.py', 76, 47, 'TestModuleBrowsers = type("Enum", (), {k: i for i, k in enumerate(test_module_browsers)})\n'))
