[R] netCDF and/or HDF4/5 interfaces for R?

There is an HDF5 interface.  It supports many, but not all R types.
It can't be used to take a snapshot of the system, for example.
Dataframes are stored as HDF5 compound types, lists of lists are
stored as groups, vectors are datasets, etc..  The error handling is
bad, but if you (learn to) avoid the rough edges it is usable.
