Bug Description
Whether it is under Python, or C++, vtkWindBladeReader fails to be instanciated and crashes the process (full error below). The problem seems to be related to MPI.
This is a user-face issue, and not only a developer issue, as it's consequence is that mayavi2 and packages that depend on it (eg python-surfer and python-mne) no longer run.
The simplest way to reproduce the problem is with 'python -c "import vtk; vtk.vtkWindBlad
The crash message is the following:
$ python -c "import vtk; vtk.vtkWindBlad
[gael:13146] [[INVALID],INVALID] ORTE_ERROR_LOG: A system-required executable either could not be found or was not executable by this user in file ess_singleton_
[gael:13146] [[INVALID],INVALID] ORTE_ERROR_LOG: A system-required executable either could not be found or was not executable by this user in file ess_singleton_
[gael:13146] [[INVALID],INVALID] ORTE_ERROR_LOG: A system-required executable either could not be found or was not executable by this user in file runtime/orte_init.c at line 128
-------
It looks like orte_init failed for some reason; your parallel process is
likely to abort. There are many reasons that a parallel process can
fail during orte_init; some of which are due to configuration or
environment problems. This failure appears to be an internal failure;
here's some additional information (which may only be relevant to an
Open MPI developer):
orte_ess_set_name failed
--> Returned value A system-required executable either could not be found or was not executable by this user (-127) instead of ORTE_SUCCESS

It looks like MPI_INIT failed for some reason; your parallel process is
likely to abort. There are many reasons that a parallel process can
fail during MPI_INIT; some of which are due to configuration or environment
problems. This failure appears to be an internal failure; here's some
additional information (which may only be relevant to an Open MPI

ompi_mpi_init: orte_init failed

[gael:13146] *** An error occurred in MPI_Init
[gael:13146] *** on a NULL communicator
[gael:13146] *** Unknown error
[gael:13146] *** MPI_ERRORS_
-------
An MPI process is aborting at a time when it cannot guarantee that all
of its peer processes in the job will be killed properly. You should
double check that everything has shut down cleanly.
Reason: Before MPI_INIT completed
Local host: gael
PID: 13146
-------
This crash message makes me strongly believe that it is due to a misconfigured MPI or a missing dependency.
