+ * Fixed bug (#699, fix provided by a user) where a scalar dataspace was
+ written to the file and then subsequently queried with the
+ H5Sget_simple_extent_type function, type was reported H5S_SIMPLE instead
+ of H5S_SCALAR. EIP - 2002/06/04
* Clear symbol table node "dirty" flag when flushing symbol tables to
disk, to reduce I/O calls made & improve performance. QAK - 2002/06/03
* Fixed bug where an object's header could get corrupted in certain obscure
