[svn-r24307] Issue 8147: CLANG compiler with the options -fcatch-undefined-behavior and -ftrapv
catches some defined behavior in the alignment algorithm of the macro DETECT_I in H5detect.c. I documented it as a known problem. No test is needed.

Known Problems
==============
+* CLANG compiler with the options -fcatch-undefined-behavior and -ftrapv
+ catches some defined behavior in the alignment algorithm of the macro DETECT_I
+ in H5detect.c (Issue 8147). Since the algorithm is trying to detect the alignment
+ of integers, ideally the flag -fcatch-undefined-behavior shouldn't to be used for
+ H5detect.c. In the future, we can separate flags for H5detect.c from the rest of
+ the library. (SLU - 2013/10/16)
