* What is going on with linked lists? (!)
* First recall the link list declaration from pmap_prot.h:
*
* struct pmaplist {
* struct pmap pml_map;
* struct pmaplist *pml_map;
* };
*
* Compare that declaration with a corresponding xdr declaration that
* is (a) pointer-less, and (b) recursive:
*
* typedef union switch (bool_t) {
*
* case TRUE: struct {
* struct pmap;
* pmaplist_t foo;
* };
*
* case FALSE: struct {};
* } pmaplist_t;
*
* Notice that the xdr declaration has no nxt pointer while
* the C declaration has no bool_t variable. The bool_t can be
* interpreted as ``more data follows me''; if FALSE then nothing
* follows this bool_t; if TRUE then the bool_t is followed by
* an actual struct pmap, and then (recursively) by the
* xdr union, pamplist_t.
*
* This could be implemented via the xdr_union primitive, though this
* would cause a one recursive call per element in the list. Rather than do
* that we can ``unwind'' the recursion
* into a while loop and do the union arms in-place.
*
* The head of the list is what the C programmer wishes to past around
* the net, yet is the data that the pointer points to which is interesting;
* this sounds like a job for xdr_reference!
