Summary0013860: the vtkXMLUnstructuredGridWriter crashes on MacOSX 10.6.8
DescriptionWhen I run the code in attachment on a MacOSX 10.6.8 the program crashes with the following message:

vtk_writer.exe(6943) malloc: *** error for object 0x7fff70e33500: pointer being freed was not allocated
*** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug
Abort trap

The function that is causing the problem seems to be vtkXMLUnstructuredGridWriter::Write().

The vtk library is compiled from the MacPorts tree.

The same code works fine on linux.

 Can you run in gdb and put a breakpoint on malloc_error_break and tell us what the backtrace is?

I would be somewhat surprised if this was a Mac-only issue... Perhaps it works on linux because free() does not do the same checks as on Mac... Could you perhaps try with valgrind on linux?

 Tested on current master on OSX 10.9.2 + XCode 6.0.1 and on Fedora 20 + GCC 4.8.3. Also ran under valgrind and Intel Inspector. Bug is no longer reproducible
