 * At 0.7, objects are given the ability to serialize themselves, and the
 * set of markers is extended, backward compatibility is not jeopardized,

/* 5.6.x introduced the ability to have IVs as long long.
   However, Configure still defined BYTEORDER based on the size of a long.
   Storable uses the BYTEORDER value as part of the header, but doesn't
   explicity store sizeof(IV) anywhere in the header.  Hence on 5.6.x built
   with IV as long long on a platform that uses Configure (ie most things
   except VMS and Windows) headers are identical for the different IV sizes,
   despite the files containing some fields based on sizeof(IV)
   Erk. Broken-ness.
   5.8 is consistent - the following redifinition kludge is only needed on
   5.6.x, but the interwork is needed on 5.8 while data survives in files

 * 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.
