This is a slightly wierd way to encode the data on the wire. The
wire format ought to follow the public API struct format, rather
than packing both values into a single array.

XDR has a native array type which automatically tracks length. Also
for portability to OS-X/Solaris we avoid uint64_t and use hyper
instead for 64bit data.
The return value structure should thus look like this:
const REMOTE_DOMAIN_MEMORY_STATS_MAX = 1024;
struct remote_domain_memory_stat {
int tag;
unsigned hyper val;
};
struct remote_domain_memory_stats_ret {
remote_domain_memory_stat<REMOTE_DOMAIN_MEMORY_STATS_MAX>;
};
NB, the MAX constant there should not be fixed to the public API
max. This is just a wire protocol decoder limit to avoid DOS on
large arrays.
Regards,
Daniel
