  // properly aligned; this makes the decoding of the payload more
  // efficient because we can use the usual demarshalling code
  // (without making extra copies).
  // This is how this works:
  // - The last field in the header is an 8-byte unsigned long, hence
  //   the header finishes on an 8 byte boundary.
  // - The pad1 long has 4 bytes.
  // - The length in the octet sequence adds another 4 bytes.
  // - Thus the data in the octet sequence starts on an 8 bytes
  //    boundary too.
