Bug Fixes since HDF5-1.4.0
==========================
- Library
- -------
- * Fixed bug with contiguous hyperslabs not being detected, causing
- slower I/O than necessary.
- * Fixed bug where non-aligned hyperslab I/O on chunked datasets was
- causing errors during I/O

+ * Fixed bug where non-aligned hyperslab I/O on chunked datasets was
+ causing errors during I/O
+ * The RCSID string in H5public.h was causing the C++ compiling problem
+ because when it was included multiple times, C++ did not like multiple
+ definitions of the same static variable. All occurance of RCSID
+ definition are removed since we have not used it consistently before.

+Configuration
+-------------
+ * Changed the default value of $NPROCS from 2 to 3 since 3 processes
+ have a much bigger chance catching parallel errors than just 2.

New Features
============
+ * C++ API:
+ - Added two new member functions: Exception::getFuncName() and
+ Exception::getCFuncName() to provide the name of the member
+ function, where an exception is thrown.
+ - IdComponent::operator= becomes a virtual function because DataType,
+ DataSpace, and PropList provide their own implementation. The new
+ operator= functions invoke H5Tcopy, H5Scopy, and H5Pcopy to make a
+ copy of a datatype, dataspace, and property list, respectively.
