-    - Autotools: An export of LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<szip library location> was
-      removed from configure and make installcheck was revised to run
-      scripts installed in share/hdf5_examples to use the installed h5cc, etc. 
-      to compile and run example source files also installed there. Make
-      installcheck will now fail when a shared szip or other external lib file
-      cannot be found in the same manner that executables compiled and linked
-      with h5cc will fail to run when those lib files cannot be found after
-      install.  Make installcheck should pass after setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the
-      szip location.

     Library
     -------
-    - Removal of DllMain() from static Windows builds. 
-      A DllMain() function was added in HDF5 1.8.13 in order to handle win32 thread
-      cleanup. The preprocessor #ifdefs around the DllMain function allowed it
-      to be compiled when the static library is built, which is incorrect behavior
-      and can cause linkage problems in clients.
-      The fix was to change the preprocessor #ifdefs to exclude compiling DllMain()
-      in static builds. Our DllMain function is now only compiled when the shared, 
-      thread-safe library is built on Windows.

-    - Enforce constraing on page_size parameter in
-      H5Pset_core_write_tracking().
-      The reference manual states that the page_size parameter cannot be zero.
-      This change checks the page_size parameter to ensure it is zero and returns
-      an error code if it is.
