There is still some obsolete declarations in H5Block.h remaining from Andreas 
proposal for the H5Block API. The declaration of "H5BlockGetMeshSpacing" is 
one. Sorry for the confusion. I will clean it up today.

Andreas should use "H5Block3dSetFieldSpacing()" and 
you "H5Block3dGetFieldSpacing()".
