   8  * Write a packetized stream, where each line is preceded by
   9  * its length (including the header) as a 4-byte hex number.
  10  * A length of 'zero' means end of stream (and a length of 1-3
  11  * would be an error).
  12  *
  13  * This is all pretty stupid, but we use this packetized line
  14  * format to make a streaming format possible without ever
  15  * over-running the read buffers. That way we'll never read
  16  * into what might be the pack data (which should go to another
  17  * process entirely).
  18  *
  19  * The writing side could use stdio, but since the reading
  20  * side can't, we stay with pure read/write interfaces.
