(DER - 2015-03-08, HDFFV-9152)
+ - Removed the --enable-filters option from configure.
+
+ This option allowed the user to disable selected internal filters,
+ presumably to make the library smaller. It has been removed since
+ it saved little space (the internal filters are small with respect
+ to the overall library size) and was not generally extendible to
+ the library at large due to the large number of #ifdefs that would
+ be required.
+
+ Note that this features applied to internal filters such as suffle
+ and n-bit, not external filters like gzip or szip. Those are still
+ enabled or disabled via their own configure options.
