Wait a bit: do you mean I can grab  the last master and try to load one 
of my hdf5 files using load?

Her, well, I can provide some test files if you want, but if your 
question is about octave, I just installed it and open a *.h5 file using 
load!
For the test files, thay can be fairly big (~100MB).

Cool!
The point in our case is not to export to hdf5 but import hdf5 files 
where we are not able to modify the way they are generated...
