Uh, that's normal. You need to have Pyrex
(http://nz.cosc.canterbury.ac.nz/~greg/python/Pyrex/) installed before
compiling. In fact, this is an error on our part because the snapshots
should be generated with a src/hdf5Extension.c included. We will mark
this as a bug and try to address it later on. Sorry for the
inconvenience.

The bug consists in that indexes of tables residing in a depth level
larger than 1 in the object tree are badly referenced, so they become
unreachable. If you try to do the same, but with your tables hanging
directly from root instead than a group, then you will hopefully get
the correct behavior.
