Name | size in B | notes

ndim         | 4               | more than 0, less than MAXDIM
data_offset  | 4               | data offset in bytes, if > 0, reads null bitmap
element_type | sizeof Oid      | cannot be spec_element_type, whatever that is

dim | 4 | appends to array of dim -- if lbound + dim - 1 < lbound, fail (???) lBound | 4 | appends to array of lBound

itemlen | 4 | if itemlen is < -1 or itemlen > more than buffer remainder | -1 means null (?) value | itemlen | element's receiveproc is called
