I'd be happy to ask hdf5-cffi, but I excpect their answer to be
"we just copied the example from the cffi-grovel manual", which
indeed they did. So maybe cffi-grovel is the better place to ask.
Although ultimately it's an ASDF question in my opinion.
And ASDF looks seriously underdocumented compared to the complexity of
all it does.

Cheers,
  Konrad.
