Yeah.  Exactly the same issue was reported by another user some days 
ago.  This seems to be an HDF5 issue.  See:

http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.python.pytables.user/1113/focus=1114

for more info (and possible workarounds).

I'll definitely ask about this in the hdf-forum mailing list.  BTW, with 
which HDF5 version does your script work?  1.8.0 or 1.8.1?
