* Basic port to Compaq (nee DEC) Alpha OSF 5.
* Added --enable-linux-lfs flag to allow more control over whether to enable
or disable large file support on Linux.
+ * Require HDF (a.k.a. hdf4) software that consists of a newer version
+ of zlib library which consists of the compress2() function. Versions
+ HDF version 4.1r3 and newer meets this requirement. The compress2
+ uses a newer compression algorithm used by the HDF5 library. Also,
+ 4.1r3 has an hdp tool that can handle "loops" in Vgroups.
