I hope so.  At least, a handful of people in this area are already using it.

Yup.  Questions like this are better addressed to the PyTables mailing list:

It seems that you have fallen into the same issue than everybody trying to use 
the newest version of HDF5 (1.8.3).  Short story: they changed the API from 
1.8.2 to 1.8.3 and public releases of PyTables needs to be patched and 
recompiled in order to adapt to the new API.  Or, you can use HDF5 1.8.2.  
Another option is to use the subversion repository of PyTables, where the 
patch has already been applied.  More info in:

Hope that helps,
