     Library
     -------
 
-      - Fixed a bug that occurred when using H5Ocopy on a committed datatype
-            containing an attribute using that committed datatype.
-            (NAF - 2011/10/13 - Issue 5854)
       - #ifdef _WIN32 instances changed to #ifdef H5_HAVE_WIN32_API and added
             H5_HAVE_VISUAL_STUDIO checks where necessary. CMake only as configure
             never set _WIN32.
