I'm unsure about this one. The problem only comes up when using examples
which need the vtkdata package. If it was only a problem in
vtkGetDataRoot.m, I would vote for 'experimental' (we could leave the
bug report open and users could put a fixed vtkGetDataRoot.m earlier in
Octave's loadpath). But with the hard-coded paths in some .m files, I
just don't know.
