Refactor integer conversion macros
Description:
Turned integer conversion macros "inside" out, using an interlocking
macro technique similar to templates in C++. The macro which actually performs
the conversion is now invoked "genericly" from inside another macro, which
will allow the inner conversion loop to be optimized in a much easier way.
This "psuedo-template" technique could be useful for other semi-repetitious
patterns in the library - possibly the datatype initialization code...

Code cleanup
Description:
Start stripping leftovers from HDF4 out of this file, working toward
getting everything defined at configure time, instead of depending on the
framework of ifdef's used in HDF4.

Cleaned up a few other minor compiler warnings, etc.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
Linux 2.4 (verbena)
too minor to require h5committest
Bug fix

Code cleanup
Description:
Cleaned up various compiler warnings
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
Linux 2.4 (verbena) w/FORTRAN
too minor for h5committest
Code cleanup
Description:
Removed "H5Git" routines, now that there are library routines which perform
the same functionality.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
Linux 2.4 (verbena) w/FORTRAN
too minor for h5committest
Update
Description:
Enable the stream-vfd driver by default. --disable-stream-vfd if you
don't want it.
Platforms tested:
Linux (configuration change, no need for full testing)
Misc. update:
Purpose: Bug fix
Description: Parameter rdcc_nelmts of the h5pget_cache_f subroutine
had wrong INTEGER(SIZE_T) instead of INTEGER type.
Solution: Fixed the type
Platforms tested: arabica in 64-bit mode (where INTEGER(SIZE_T) is not
the same as INTEGER)
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
The 'char *' type is one of the "strongly" aligned types on Crays, but
a 'void *' is "weakly" aligned. So, assigning a 'void *' (pointing to a
location to place a 'char *') to a 'char **' can change the pointer value
during the assignment.
Solution:
Don't alias the 'void *' where the variable-length information ('char *'
or 'hvl_t') will go. Use a temporary variable on the stack to build up the
information about the VL string or sequence and then memcpy() the temporary
variable directly to the location pointed to with the 'void *'
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
Cray SV1 (wind)
specific to Cray problems, h5committest not necessary.

Correct the size of the buffer needed for the destination value to use
the actual destination type size.

Description:
Added line #'s to a bunch of the error printf's, so it's easier to locate
where an error occurs.

Bug fix
Description:
The tests recently added for checking a file's freespace and verifying the
new fields added to the H5G_stat_t structure use H5T_NATIVE_INT as the type for
the datasets and attributes they create. Because the tests check explicit file
sizes, this causes problems on Crays, where a native int is 64-bit instead of
32-bit.
Solution:
Change the tests to use H5T_STD_U32LE instead of H5T_NATIVE_INT.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
Cray SV1 (wind)
Bug fix
Description:
The VL type conversion routine attempt to align it's destination buffer to
an offer that will work for both hvl_t and char * types, but the algorithm used
fails to work correctly on Cray machines.
Solution:
Give up on attempting to align the buffer when it's allocated on the stack.
Just dynamically allocate it instead.

Feature, sort of.

Reactivated the big dataset test. Changed it
to default off, can be turned on via -b.
Platforms tested:
Only in Copper which is the only local machine safe to run
mulitple GB size files.
Misc. update:
Code Improvement
Description:
Changed from passing a structure into a function by value into
passing it in by pointer. Noticed this while compiling with a highly
optimizing compiler which took >30 minutes to analyze the program
(granted, this is the compiler's fault, but in general, it's better
to pass large structures in by pointer and not by value).
Platforms tested:
Linux (specific to h5import, so only needed to test on one platform)
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
When too many messages were inserted into an object header, the library
had an internal pointer to the "new message" that was pointing to the incorrect
location when the array of messages was re-allocated.
In the worst case, this could cause a file to be corrupted.
Solution:
Update the internal pointer when the array is re-allocated.
