In vtkDataArrayTemplate realloc sometimes fails, while malloc+memcpy may still work
This issue was created automatically from an original Mantis Issue. Further discussion may take place here.
It has been observed that on some platforms (e.g. longhorn), relloc in vtkDataArrayTemplate may fail, but changing that to use a malloc+memcpy if the relloc fails, succeeds. It may be worthwhile to add that as a safeguard to realloc.
