Summary0013295: vtkXMLUnstructuredGridReader cannot read vtu-files in ascii mode when a double data array contains INFINITE or MAX values
DescriptionvtkXMLUnstructuredGridWriter seems to correctly write vtu-files in ascii mode with double data arrays containing INFINITE and MAX values.
However the vtkXMLUnstructuredGridReader reports the following error:

<error>
ERROR: In D:\projects\vtk-5.10.0\IO\vtkXMLDataReader.cxx, line 545
vtkXMLUnstructuredGridReader (0000000001DC9A30): Cannot read cell data array "doubles" from PointData in piece 0. The data array in the element may be too short.
</error>


Note that modes other than ascii, compressed or uncompressed, don't have this issue; however this issue makes up a bad combination together with issue 0013294.


Please see attached zip file, which contains:
* a test cpp file displaying how I produce the vtu-files
* a test msvc2010 project
* the source and resulting vtu files


I detected the issue already in version 5.8.0, it's still active in 5.10.0.
However, it doesn't show up in 6.0 (git #02aef09).
