Sorry for the false trail, then.

The best way to find the problem may be to compile your program with debugging 
symbols (CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug), and run in the debugger, breaking at 
Code/IO/VTKImageIO.cxx in the method
void VTKImageIO::InternalReadImageInformation(std::ifstream & file)

Stepping through the code may be informative.  Pay particular attention to
240   for ( bool readScalars = false; !readScalars; ).
It might not be getting out of that loop.
