DESCRIPTION
This module is used to read in a pointer to an
variable sized array. The size of the array
and the data is stored in the transport. The
reader first reads the number of points, allocates
enough space for the return data, and then calls
kread_generic() to do the actual reading of the
data. If NULL is stored then kread_pointer()
will set the data pointer to NULL and return that
0 data points were read.
