Dear Achim and Andreas,

Attached is a patch file containing some small revisions I have made
to the H5Part 1.4.0 release in the last 6 months. I created the patch
using:

$ diff -Naur ~/src/H5Part-1.4.0 H5Part-1.4.1 > H5Part-1.4.1.patch

I've never used the diff/patch system before, so let me know if you
need me to generate the patch in a different way.

Here is a summary of the changes:

* Added support for HDF 1.8.1.

* Added float32 and int64 versions of the H5Block scalar field
read/write functions, using a new naming convention:

H5BlockWriteFieldFloat64()
H5BlockWriteFieldFloat32()
H5BlockWriteFieldInt64()

* Modified _write_data() in H5Block to write arbitrary MPI data types.

* Added a H5BlockDefine3DChunk() function that exposes HDF5's
set_chunk() functionality in the H5Part API.

* Added a configure option that switches the default HDF5 VFD
used by H5Part to MPI-POSIX instead of MPI-IO.

* Fixed a bug in the configure script which was preventing compiling
the FORTRAN library on Cray XT4 architectures.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Mark
