+ - Fixed an error involving failure to write fill values to the user's
+ buffer when reading unallocated chunks from datasets that have a
+ fill value set to H5D_FILL_VALUE_DEFAULT. A consequence of this

- Fixed an error that could occur when calling H5Ocopy within an
H5Literate callback (and possibly other situations).

Known Problems
==============
-* The h5dump and h5diff utilities occasionally produce different output
- between Linux and Windows systems. This is caused by lower-level library
- routines that fail to write fill values to the user's buffer when reading
- unallocated chunks from datasets that have a fill value set to
- H5D_FILL_VALUE_DEFAULT. Due to platform differences the return of
- spurious data values have only been encountered on Windows 32-bit systems.

* The 5.9 C++ compiler on Sun failed to compile a C++ test ttypes.cpp. It
complains with this message:
