Description
Attempting to store a Panel4D of complext128 results in an error. This is true if I use table or fixed formats (different errors) [I am showing the last call from pandas as well as the actual error]
pd.Panel4D(np.tile(np.array([1+1j,2+2j]),[2,2,2,1])).to_hdf('complex.h5','complex',format='t')
Traceback (most recent call last):

If you try fixed, you get
