When building the libraries project with Visual Studio 11, the compiler gives a number of C4090 warnings (different 'const' or 'volatile' qualifiers).

Three of these occur in the macro DETECT_F(TYPE,VAR,INFO) in file H5detect.c, and are apparently due to the call to find_bias().

..\..\src\H5detect.c(1345): warning C4090: 'function' : different 'volatile' qualifiers ..\..\src\H5detect.c(1346): warning C4090: 'function' : different 'volatile' qualifiers ..\..\src\H5detect.c(1589): warning C4090: 'function' : different 'volatile' qualifiers

They can be fixed by changing the declaration of
        static unsigned long find_bias(int, int, int *, void *);
to
        static unsigned long find_bias(int, int, int *, void volatile *);
