 *
 * Note:        Sometimes this happens as a result of converting an existing

 *              here, even though it might already be zero (when we're adding

/*-------------------------------------------------------------------------
 * Function:    H5O_alloc_new_chunk
 *
 * Purpose:     Allocates a new chunk for the object header, including
 *		file space.
 *
 *              One of the other chunks will get an object continuation
 *		message.  If there isn't room in any other chunk for the
 *		object continuation message, then some message from
 *		another chunk is moved into this chunk to make room.
 *
 *              SIZE need not be aligned.
 *
 * Note:	The algorithm for finding a message to replace with a
 *		continuation message is still fairly limited.  It's possible
 *		that two (or more) messages smaller than a continuation message
 *		might occupy a chunk and need to be moved in order to make
 *		room for the continuation message.
 *
 *		Also, we aren't checking for NULL messages in front of another
 *		message right now...
 *
 * Return:      Success:        Index number of the null message for the
 *                              new chunk.  The null message will be at
 *                              least SIZE bytes not counting the message
 *                              ID or size fields.
 *
 *              Failure:        Negative
