By the way,
if you have an up-to-date flesh and Makefile, you should get an error message if you set HDF5 = YES

Hi. I'm unable to get HDF5 capability to install. If I set HDF5_DIR=/sw, which is the installation already on my machine, I get the error message that I need a thorn that implements HDF5. ("CST error 1: -> Thorn 'CarpetIOHDF5' requires the capability 'HDF5'. Please add a thorn that provides 'HDF5' to your ThornList or remove 'CarpetIOHDF5' from it !")
If I leave HDF5_DIR unset (and all other "HDF5" flags unset as well) and include CactusExternal/HDF5 in my Thornlist, then I also get an error message saying it's unable to compile, as shown below.
To be clear, the options settings which are either left in the file or commented out via "#", are:
HDF5 = YES
