I can indeed read this dataset in matlab.  The opcodes seem to be 
straightforward integers, while 'arg1' and 'arg2' appear to be 
non-human-readable strings (i.e. containing non-ascii values).

I am going to see if I can figure it out myself, but is there a simple way to 
disable the undo feature when reading?  As you can see from the error log 
I've sent, that's where the error is ocurring.  It seems strange that one 
would enable undo on the File object even when the file is open read only...

The other alternative is writing some c-function to do surgery on the file, or 
otherwise copying out the important bits using matlab (matlab can't delete 
things from HDF5 - indeed, it can only write things that are not already 
there, no changes at all)... bleh.

Cheers,
