[vtk-developers] Non-reproducable test failure

[Sankhesh Jhaveri]

Unfortunately, I can't make it fail on Trey with the test script that Sean
posted.

I'll give RUN_SERIAL a try. At the very least it would prevent its
competition with other tests.

The test uses the ironProt dataset (64x64x64) which is comparably very tiny
as compared to other datasets used by other `passing` volume tests on Trey.
