Hierarchical Data Format (HDF5) libraries and tools.
HDF5 is not compatible with HDF[4] which it supercedes.

Optional depends on szip, which was submitted earlier today.
Testing has involved working through many, but not all, of
the tutorial examples in C. The fortran option is disabled
by default.

Note: the h5perf program that is installed has an unfortunate
internal library dependency on the h5test library which does
not, meaning that 'lunar update' always rebuilds the hdf5 module.

+The HDF (Hierarchical Data Format) project involves the development
+and support of software and file formats for scientific data
+management.  The HDF software includes I/O libraries and tools for
+analyzing, visualizing, and converting scientific data.
+
+There are two HDF formats, HDF (4.x and previous releases) and HDF5.
+These formats are completely different and NOT compatible.
+(NOTE: There are no plans to drop support for HDF 4.x)
+
+The HDF software is developed/supported by THG and is freely available.
+It is used world-wide in many fields, including Environmental Science,
+Neutron Scattering, Non-Destructive Testing, and Aerospace, to name a
+few. Scientific projects that use HDF include NASA's HDF-EOS project,
+and the DOE's Advanced Simulation and Computing Program. 
+
+NOTE: Fortran support is not available in this Lunar version.
