HDF5 works fine if I don't try to precompile it. And now Gadfly works great! Which is really fantastic as that was, by a longshot, the biggest problem slowdown in getting to work with a new Julia instance. Thanks so much!
I'm not too worried about HDF5, as it only takes a couple seconds to load. I'll try playing around with it myself a bit and if I can't figure it out I'll file an issue.
