That seems fine to me...

Mmmm, no idea. They seems like compressor routines (SZIP?). Maybe have you
downloaded a binary version of HDF5 library (that might depend on SZIP
compressor) and you failed to install SZIP?

Right now PyTables does not use SZIP at all. If the problem is this, try
compiling HDF5 by yourself without SZIP support. That *should* work.
