[svn-r7653]
Purpose: Added section for R1.6.1 Listed new functions: H5Fget_freelist h5pset_fapl_mpiposix_f * h5pget_fapl_mpiposix_f * (* With note that these functions were new in 1.6.0 but undocumented.) Listed functions with changed sytax: H5Gget_obj_info -- changed struct h5fset_cache_f -- parameter change And a copy edit in the 1.6.0 section where that release was referred to as 'Release 1.5'. Platforms tested: Safari, IE 5

+ <dd>The <code>rdcc_nbytes</code> parameter has changed from

+ subroutine.
