[Paraview] Paraview segfault when connecting to pvserver

[Patrick Begou]

Hi

Paraview 5.3 on the desktop client is from paraview superbuild 
(v5.3.0-1-g8375204) using Qt5. It runs in standalone mode or with client/server 
(mpirun -np 4 pvserver  --use-offscreen-rendering) on the same  PC. I have to 
use  " --use-offscreen-rendering" to avoid some rendering problem with 
client/server.

Paraview is compiled on a remote cluster with osmesa support, by hand (paraview 
superbuild still fails at this time), it is v5.3.0-489-gdbdb86747e.

If I launch pvserver (mpirun -np 2 pvserver ) on the remote cluster and try to 
connect from my PC, paraview segfault:

I've tryed to google the error message, but did not get any solution.
