After a bit of googling and reading it seems like Google Protocol
Buffers includes a specific wire encoding, a la ASN.1 or CORBA, whereas
we need to be able to describe existing binary formats.

I haven't evaluated the suitability for new PV protocols, but it seems
like Protocol Buffers are not really intended for shared memory
protocols (rather network transparent ones). Perhaps I'm wrong though, I
just had a quick look.
