Also, if something isn't working with the new version of HDF5, please do
make sure to report it here <https://github.com/timholy/HDF5.jl/issues>, as
I'm sure Tim Holy will want to know about it.

Once things are fixed enough for you to update to the latest version, don't
forget to Pkg.free("HDF5") to release it back to being unpinned.
