Fixed various bugs, including compilation issues samtools/bcftools#610, samtools/bcftools#611 and robustness to corrupted data #537, #538, #541, #546, #548, #549, #554.
The htslib-1.5.tar.bz2 download is the full source code release. The “Source code” downloads are generated by GitHub and are incomplete as they [don't bundle HTSlib and] are missing some generated files.
