Subject: [svn-r4707] Purpose:     Bug fixing Description:    
 H5IdComponent::operator= shouldn't be virtual because the subclass'    
 operator= have different type for the rhs argument.  Removed virtual
 Platforms tested:     SunOS 5.7 (arabica)     IRIX64 (modi4) - only tested
 that the warnings went away, still working                         on other
 configuration problems.
