   Note to self:  Definitely need an example of HTTP_xmlReturnPtr() in
   the
   EXAMPLE programs.

   Yes.  HTTPAPI returns 65535A because it's easy to work with, but it's
   also capable of returning a pointer and a length.  When this is done,
   the length can be as large as 16mb per element.
   To use this feature, you must do the following BEFORE calling any
   routines that work with XML:
        http_XmlReturnPtr(*ON);
   This tells HTTPAPI to return a pointer instead of a string, making it
   possible to handle longer elements.
   Then you'll want to update your End Element Handler (it looks like
   you've named yours "Incoming") to receive a DS containing a pointer
   and
   a length, like this:
     D value_t         ds                  qualified
     D   valptr                        *
     D   len                         10i 0
     D Incoming        PR
     D   userdata                      *   value
     D   depth                       10I 0 value
     D   name                      1024A   varying const
     D   path                     24576A   varying const
     D   retval                            likeds(value_t)
     D   Attrs                         *   dim(32767)
   Now you can handle up to 16mb for the element's value, but of course,
   you have to use pointer logic to access the data.  (That's the best I
   can do without requiring v6r1 or higher to use HTTPAPI!)
