 *
 * where <flags> indicates how long <len>, <len2> and <len3> are, whether
 * the trailing part [] is present, the type of object (scalar, array or hash).
 * There is also a bit which says how the classname is stored between:
 *
 *     <len> <classname>
 *     <index>
 *
 * and when the <index> form is used (classname already seen), the "large
 * classname" bit in <flags> indicates how large the <index> is.
 * 
 * The serialized string returned by the hook is of length <len2> and comes
 * next.  It is an opaque string for us.
 *
 * Those <len3> object IDs which are listed last represent the extra references
 * not directly serialized by the hook, but which are linked to the object.
 *
 * When recursion is mandated to resolve object-IDs not yet seen, we have
 * instead, with <header> being flags with bits set to indicate the object type
 * and that recursion was indeed needed:
 *
 *     SX_HOOK <header> <object> <header> <object> <flags>
 *
 * that same header being repeated between serialized objects obtained through
 * recursion, until we reach flags indicating no recursion, at which point
 * we know we've resynchronized with a single layout, after <flags>.
 *
 * When storing a blessed ref to a tied variable, the following format is
 * used:
 *
 *     SX_HOOK <flags> <extra> ... [<len3> <object-IDs>] <magic object>
 *
 * The first <flags> indication carries an object of type SHT_EXTRA, and the
 * real object type is held in the <extra> flag.  At the very end of the
 * serialization stream, the underlying magic object is serialized, just like
 * any other tied variable.
