[svn-r19154] Description:

    Bring r19153 from trunk to 1.8 branch:

    Bring changes on Coverity branch back to trunk:

r19040:
Fixed coverity #440 - NULL check after dereference.  We moved the NULL check up
into the IF block and changed it to assertion.

r19041:
Maintenance: Addressed Coverity issues 441 and 449 by initializing proper
variables

r19042:
In function H5O_chunk_protect (H5Ochunk.c):
 - Initialize H5O_chunk_proxy_t pointers chk_proxy and ret_value.
 - Free chk_proxy on error.

r19043:
Addressed coverity issues 442 - 448 by initializing pointers to NULL.

Tested on:
    Mac OS X/32 10.6.4 (amazon) w/debug & production
    (Too minor to require h5committest)
