Bug Fixes since HDF5-1.12.0-alpha1 release
==================================
+ Library
+ -------
+ - Fixed an assertion failure in the parallel library when collectively
+ filling chunks. As it is required that chunks be written in
+ monotonically non-decreasing order of offset in the file, this assertion
+ was being triggered when the list of chunk file space allocations being
+ passed to the collective chunk filling routine was not sorted according
+ to this particular requirement.
+
+ The addition of a sort of the out of order chunks trades a bit of
+ performance for the elimination of this assertion and of any complaints
+ from MPI implementations about the file offsets used being out of order.
+
