You are using numarray/numpy for generating the data for the VTK
pipeline.  This doesn't happen all that often.  Try to reproduce the
error WITHOUT numarray/numpy but with some standard VTK datafile.

Building RelWithDebInfo is easy, you don't need a debug Python.  It's
a question of changing the Build target in your IDE and rebuilding.

I'm swamped with work at the moment, else I would spend more time on this...
