[vtkusers] FillHolesFilter

[Karthik Krishnan]

What version of VTK are you using ? I fixed a bug, where the filter
fails to tessellate holes in the trivial case: when the boundary loop
spans a single triangle.

  http://vtk.org/gitweb?p=VTK.git;a=history;f=Graphics/vtkFillHolesFilter.cxx;h=e40eeaa4c742b01095af0fd4cea91792493e9522;hb=HEAD

Also the filter has issues with holes are pinched, (if they self
intersect at a node, think of an "8"). But it should not yield 0 cells
in the output. The version prior to the bug fix, above will though, if
your hole spans a single triangle alone, so I suspect that that's your
issue. Update and let us know.
