This solution looks like it may do the trick. Unfortunately, when I had 
serialized my object to its string format, it had some non-standard content:
    
    
    0x7ffff6dd4fee: 1       0       0       0       0       0       0       0
    0x7ffff6dd4ff6: 42      0       0       0       0       0       96      106
    0x7ffff6dd4ffe: 71
    

Is there a good way (apart from building a sequence up byte by byte and then 
converting it to a string) to tell Nim that this 17 byte buffer should be read 
as a string?
