0015679: parallel, remote server fails (and soon faults) rendering vts/ pvd files
I have a dataset that is showing crazy behavior with ParaView in parallel. Here is how to replicate:

* Linux, master, Local server.
* Open G1WakeGrid.pvd. Apply. There are 6 timesteps. (Note that the .pvd file has many more timesteps. Don't go beyond about step 4, or you get an error from the inconsistent .pvd file.)
* Step forward a few timesteps. Step back.
<<Note>> This case looks good.

* Linux, master, Remote server, 2 processes.
* Open G1WakeGrid_0.vts. Apply.
<<Note>> This case looks good.
* Open G1WakeGrid_1.vts. Apply.
<<Note>> This case looks good.

* Linux, master, Remote server, 2 processes.
* Open G1WakeGrid.pvd. Apply.
* Step forward one timesteps.
<<Bug>> This case looks bad. Half of the model will go away. If you go to the information tab, every step forward or backward will halve the number of cells/ points in the dataset. Just step forward/ back to see this crazy behavior.

This will eventually progress until there is a seg fault, trying to malloc a few trillion bytes.

Utkarsh, ask me for this dataset.

Indeed, this seems already fixed in master as of commit
33d87dede6aafdd3a4a28bd52288e91e0da88b1d.
I cannot reproduce the behavior described.
