Update Information:

A corruption problem was found in the HDF5 1.8 release, which affects versions
1.8.0 through 1.8.4. The problem has been fixed in HDF5 1.8.4 Patch 1.    What
Causes The Problem    Files that have this corruption problem meet all of the
following circumstances:        * The version of HDF5 was before the HDF5 1.8.4
Patch 1 release (which includes the 1.8.4 release).      * The file was created
on a big-endian platform (SPARC/Solaris, POWER/AIX, etc).      * NetCDF-4 was
used to create the file, OR the H5Pset_libver_bounds(fapl, H5F_LIBVER_LATEST,
H5F_LIBVER_LATEST) call was made, OR shared object header messages were enabled
with H5Pset_shared_mesg_nindexes() when creating the file.      * More than 8
attributes were added to an object in the file (in the case of using netCDF-4 or
calling H5Pset_libver_bounds), OR if messages of the type specified to be shared
were stored in the file (in the case of calling H5Pset_shared_mesg_nindexes).
If your data matches these criteria, then you may have generated files that have
incorrectly encoded IDs for attributes and shared object header messages.
