Drum roll please....... "Corrupt" set of paraview preferences. After
installing 10.5.8 clean from my installation disks everything worked
as it was supposed to. So that means the only difference is between
the 2 user environments. Preferences is the first to check. Looked in
my home directory, blew away the .config directory, launched paraview
on the "trouble" machine and now everything works. I could completely
replicate this issue simply by swapping in and out the "good" and
"bad" preferences for ParaView. I have the "bad" preferences if anyone
wants them to try and debug what was going on.
Thanks to EVERYONE who helped me with ideas.

I just tried the 3.6.2 binary on a MacBook booted off an old 10.5.7
usb drive backup and all of the Color By entries showed up just
fine. The MacBook has the GMA 950 on-board graphics chipset. The Mac
Pro I used before has the NVidia GeForce 8800 GT card. If you can
think of any other specs that might be crucial, just drop me a line.

I just fire up the 3.6.2 binary from Kitware on OS X 10.5.8 on a
MacBook Pro with nVidea 8600M graphics card and the information tab
is identical to your image BUT my "Color By" drop down only shows
"Solid Color", "Ids", "Normals", all of which are "Point Data" and
NOT "Cell Data".
So not really sure what is up. If someone wants to remotely work on
my machine email me off list and I'll get you setup.

I don't have a CVS build on OS X 10.5.8 any more, but I booted
into it and ran the 3.6.2 binary and SphereSource->GenerateIds
shows all four arrays in Color By and three in Information.

By my side, yes: SphereSource -> GenerateIds. You are right:
Information
tab shows the celldata and pointdata array, whereas "Color by"
has only point.

Mmm..not sure if that'd help, since you said you can reproduce
the
issue with GenerateIds filter as well, right?

Mike, but the cell data shows up correctly on the information
tab,
right? So the cell data is being loaded, and even reported to
ParaView. It's hard to imagine why it would be doing what it's
doing,
esp. with the precompiled binaries on Mac, since they work
fine for
me, on my Mac 10.6 :).
It cannot be a mere GUI issue since from the debugging report
that
Mike gave us before, ParaView indeed doesn't report those cell
arrays
to the client when rendering. I just wish I could reproduce it
somehow
somewhere so I could debug it :). I am going to test on Os X
10.5 to
see if we have any better luck.
