[svn-r6632] Purpose:
Bug fix Description: This fixes a bug in the low-level metadata caching code in the library which could possibly lose metadata during file I/O when a lot of objects are inserted into a group. This also fixes a couple of (similar) fencepost bugs in the B-tree deletion code. Solution: For the metadata bug - call the low-level driver's 'write' routine instead of H5FD_write. For the B-tree bug - include the correct number of keys. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.8 (sleipnir) w/C++ Linux 2.4 (burrwhite) w/FORTRAN Solaris 2.7 (arabica) w/FORTRAN IRIX64 6.5 (modi4) w/FORTRAN & parallel (h5committest is still not working for me on burrwhite) Misc. update:
