Problem still happen with VTK-6 (384636e), here is the updated CMakeLists.txt:

######################################
project(TestGeometry)
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8.10)

find_package(VTK COMPONENTS
  vtkCommonCore
  vtkCommonDataModel
  vtkRenderingCore
  vtkRenderingOpenGL REQUIRED)
include(${VTK_USE_FILE})

add_executable( SyntheticPolyData SyntheticPolyData.cxx )
target_link_libraries( SyntheticPolyData ${VTK_LIBRARIES} )

I believe this is the longstanding 32 bit GL problem, in which values that are out of range can not be rendered correctly by GL, and thus can not be rendered by VTK.
