[svn-r12413] Purpose:
Bug fix Description: Changed the semantics of --enable-stream-vfd and --enable-shared. Both are now disabled by default when parallel HDF5 is being built. Solution: Both shared and stream-vfd are disabled by default in parallel, but can be enabled explicitly if the user chooses. Before, shared was always enabled by default and stream-vfd was always disabled in parallel. Platforms tested: heping, mir (configuration change only)
