Problems with Data Types, Medium Severity (2)

	Change	Effect
1	Field filter_chksum has been added at the middle position of this structural type.	1) Size of the inclusive type has been changed. 2) Layout of structure fields has been changed and therefore fields at higher positions of the structure definition may be incorrectly accessed by applications.

Problems with Constants (4)

	Change	Effect
1	The value of constant LAL_VCS_ID has been changed from "0ba4b16915434b5477282639eaef92d6faf20761" to "326f3ba0f848ba2e31e93262a1360c62aaf6baf4".	Applications will pass an old value of this constant as the parameter to the new-version library functions, that expect a new one. This may result in crash of incorrect behavior of applications.

	Change	Effect
1	The value of constant LAL_VCS_IDENT_ID has been changed from "$" "LALId: 0ba4b16915434b5477282639eaef92d6faf20761 " "$" to "$" "LALId: 326f3ba0f848ba2e31e93262a1360c62aaf6baf4 " "$".	Applications will pass an old value of this constant as the parameter to the new-version library functions, that expect a new one. This may result in crash of incorrect behavior of applications.

	Change	Effect
1	The value of constant LAL_VCS_IDENT_TAG has been changed from "$" "LALTag: lal_6_4_1_release " "$" to "$" "LALTag: lal_6_5_0_release " "$".	Applications will pass an old value of this constant as the parameter to the new-version library functions, that expect a new one. This may result in crash of incorrect behavior of applications.

	Change	Effect
1	The value of constant LAL_VCS_TAG has been changed from "lal_6_4_1_release" to "lal_6_5_0_release".	Applications will pass an old value of this constant as the parameter to the new-version library functions, that expect a new one. This may result in crash of incorrect behavior of applications.
