[svn-r6950] Purpose:
API tweak. Description: The H5Sget_select_bounds() API call was using hsize_t arrays for retrieving the 'start' and 'end' coordinates, which is counter to the rest of the dataspace API. Solution: Change the arrays to be hssize_t instead. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.8 (sleipnir) w/C++ FreeBSD 4.8 (sleipnir) w/parallel h5committested Misc. update: Updated all docs for this change. Added 1.4 compatibility #ifdef's

filters. These improvements are currently limited to serial I/O, with
