That sounds like the kind of behaviour that occurs when a command line application tries to show a GUI. You see similar with many VTK unit tests. On OS X, the only supported way to show a GUI (NSWindow, NSView, etc.) is to do so from a .app bundled application. Is your ParaView build as a .app or just a plain executable?
