Library
-------
+ - Fixed a rare problem that could occur with files using the old (pre 1.4)
+ array datatype. (NAF - 2009/03/23)
+ - Modified library to be able to open files with corrupt root group symbol
+ table messages, and correct these errors if they are found. Such
+ files can only be successfully opened with write access.
+ (NAF - 2009/03/23 - 1189)
+ - Removed the long_long #define and replaced all instances with
+ "long long". This caused problems with third party products. All
+ currently supported compliers support the type. (ADB - 2009/03/05)
- Fixed various bugs that could prevent the fill value from being written
in certain rare cases. (NAF - 2009/02/26)
- Fixed a bug that prevented more than one dataset chunk from being cached

Configuration
-------------
+ - The --includedir=DIR configuration option now works as intended, and can
+ be used to specify the location to install C header files. The default
+ location remains unchanged, residing at ${prefix}/include.
+ MAM - 2009/03/10 - BZ #1381
+ - Configure no longer removes the '-g' flag from CFLAGS when in production
+ mode if it has been explicitly set in the CFLAGS environment variable
+ prior to configuration. MAM - 2009/03/09 - BZ #1401.
- Fixed error with 'make check install' failing due to h5dump
needing other tools built first. MAM - 2008/10/24.
- When using shared szip, it is no longer necessary to specify
