[svn-r8126] Purpose:
Bug fix/optimization Description: Address slowdown in MPI-I/O file metadata operations that was introduced mid-stream. We now _require_ a POSIX compliant parallel file system for the MPI-I/O file driver (as well as for the MPI-POSIX file driver). Also optimized file open operation when the file is being created by reducing the number of collective & syncronizing calls. Additionally, refactor the MPI routines into a common place, eliminating duplicated code. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir) w/parallel h5committest

Configuration
-------------
+ - Parallel I/O with the MPI-I/O driver will no longer work if the
+ filesystem is not POSIX compliant. The "HDF5_MPI_1_METAWRITE"
+ environment variable has been removed. QAK - 2004/01/30
- Fixed the error that cause "make install" to fail because of the
macro definition syntax of "prefix?=..." AKC - 2003/07/22
