[svn-r9358] Purpose:
Bug fix Description: Relax restrictions on parallel I/O to allow compressed, chunked datasets to be read in parallel (collective access will be degraded to independent access, but will retrieve the information still). Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/parallel Solaris 2.7 (arabica) IRIX64 6.5 (modi4) h5committest
