Hello again,
I have to reply to myself. On friday I wrote the following mail:

Unfortunatly I was not able to provide a simple example to demonstrate the
problem. But today I found one by modifying a Xdmf test case. The original is
TetrahedronSpatialTimestep.xmf, the modified TetrahedronSpatialTimestep-
mod.xmf. The change is in the "Value" strings for the time. I deliberately
added some decimal places. Using ParaView 4.3.1 I can step through all 3 time
steps of the original case, but only through the first 2 of the modified.
My original problem also works if the time values are truncated to 4 decimal
places.
Best regards,
Gottfried
