Extract run-time features that are not specific to HDF5
This is about getting the "infrastructure" routines out of the HDF5 library (such as the property list, error handling, ID management, etc.) and putting them in a separate library that doesn't have anything to do with HDF5 files. That would leave the "main" HDF5 library to just focus on doing I/O operation on HDF5 files. This would probably result in a significant bonus for maintenance on the library.
