What is extensions? A string or a tuple? I'm guessing a string, because then you're looking at:

--> filename.endswith(x) for x in 'hdf5'

which is the same as

--> filename.endswith('h') or filename.endswith('d') or
    filename.endswith('f') or filename.endswith('5')

and then both .hdf and .hdf5 files will get matched.

Try making extensions a tuple.

Hope this helps, but if it doesn't, follow Grant's advice.
