This function prototype really needs basic constification to mark
which arguments are inputs and which are outputs.  The pserial in
particular needs different const modifiers for each level of
indirection to indicate that this is output of a pointer to a
read-only number.

Quite surprised this hasn't been done during all the pointless API
changes after the new management took over the project.
