Correction:

RPC_VARARRAY data encoding for data returned by RPC is different from data sent to RPC:

4 bytes of arg_size (before 8-byte alignement), (for data sent to RPC, it's 4 bytes of param_size, after 8-byte alignment)
4 bytes of padding
param_size of data

K.O.

P.S. bug/discrepancy caught by GCC/LLVM address sanitizer.
