I haven't forgotten about this, and have been experimenting with a patch, but have been waiting for the post-modularization changes to settle down.

I've seen messages fly by that look related, but, I'm no longer able to build with wrappings enabled because a process named vtkWrapHierarchy gets stuck.  Due to this I can't throughly test my patch and I've also disabled VTK builds from my dashboard.  Sampling the process reveals the call graph below.  Anyone know what's going on here?  Thanks.
