===================================
Library
-------
- -
+ - Converted an assertion on (possibly corrupt) file contents to a normal
+ error check
+
+ Previously, the library contained an assertion check that a read superblock
+ doesn't contain a superblock extension message when the superblock
+ version < 2. When a corrupt HDF5 file is read, this assertion can be triggered
+ in debug builds of HDF5. In production builds, this situation could cause
+ either a library error or a crash, depending on the platform.
