Library
-------
- * Fixed bug with contiguous hyperslabs not being detected, causing
- slower I/O than necessary.
- * Fixed bug where non-aligned hyperslab I/O on chunked datasets was
- causing errors during I/O
- * The RCSID string in H5public.h was causing the C++ compiling problem
- because when it was included multiple times, C++ did not like multiple
- definitions of the same static variable. All occurance of RCSID
- definition are removed since we have not used it consistently before.

+ * IMPORTANT: Fixed file metadata corruption bug which could cause metadata
+ data loss in certain situations.
Configuration
-------------
* Changed the default value of $NPROCS from 2 to 3 since 3 processes
have a much bigger chance catching parallel errors than just 2.

+ * Basic port to Compaq (nee DEC) Alpha OSF 5.

============
* C++ API:
- - Added two new member functions: Exception::getFuncName() and
- Exception::getCFuncName() to provide the name of the member
- function, where an exception is thrown.
- - IdComponent::operator= becomes a virtual function because DataType,
- DataSpace, and PropList provide their own implementation. The new
- operator= functions invoke H5Tcopy, H5Scopy, and H5Pcopy to make a
