I am trying to add a comment to 
<https://www.pytables.org/trac/ticket/176>, which was reported by 
someone else, but I cannot seem to figure out how to do so.

I also have this problem. Looking at the source to hdf5Extension.pyx 
<http://pytables.org/svn/pytables/trunk/tables/hdf5Extension.pyx>, I see 
this:

     # Set the fill values
     fill_value = <void *>malloc(<size_t> itemsize)
     for i from  0 <= i < itemsize:
       (<char *>fill_value)[i] = 0

It always sets the value to 0, instead of using the value of atom.dflt, 
as it should. This looks like a bug to me. Can it be fixed easily?
