devel/py-tables dumps core after science/hdf5-18 upgrade to 1.8.10 (r325778)

[John W. O'Brien]

Hello wen@, sunpoet@, and python@,

I just wanted to call your attention to this because it might warrant a
mention in UPDATING, though the hdf5 error message is helpfully verbose.
Rebuilding devel/py-tables after the upgrade fixes this. Other ports
that depend upon science/hdf5-18 are likely affected too.

% pkg_info -xI tables hdf
hdf5-1.8.10         Hierarchical Data Format library (from NCSA)
py27-tables-3.0.0   Hierarchical database for Python
% python -c 'import tables; print(tables.get_hdf5_version())'
1.8.9
% nosetests tables.tests.test_basics
Warning! ***HDF5 library version mismatched error***
The HDF5 header files used to compile this application do not match
the version used by the HDF5 library to which this application is linked.
Data corruption or segmentation faults may occur if the application
continues.
This can happen when an application was compiled by one version of HDF5 but
linked with a different version of static or shared HDF5 library.
You should recompile the application or check your shared library related
settings such as 'LD_LIBRARY_PATH'.
You can, at your own risk, disable this warning by setting the environment
variable 'HDF5_DISABLE_VERSION_CHECK' to a value of '1'.
Setting it to 2 or higher will suppress the warning messages totally.
Headers are 1.8.9, library is 1.8.10
            SUMMARY OF THE HDF5 CONFIGURATION
            =================================

General Information:
-------------------
                   HDF5 Version: 1.8.10-patch1
