[svn-r9155] Purpose:
Bug fix (sorta) Description: Change reading of "missing" chunks from datasets with undefined fill values to not overwrite the application buffer with random garbage from memory. Note that this is almost the same, since whatever garbage the application had in those locations will still be there... Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) IRIX64 6.5 (modi4) h5committested

+ with garbage when accessing a chunked dataset with an undefined
+ fill value and an unwritten chunk is uncountered. QAK - 2004/08/25

routine was registered after a compound datatype had been
converted and then an equivalment compound datatype was converted
