 *		is organized in external files.  ELMT_SIZE is the size in
 *		bytes of a datum which this function treats as opaque.
 *		FILE_SPACE describes the data space of the dataset on disk
 *		and the elements that have been selected for reading (via
 *		hyperslab, etc).  This function will copy at most NELMTS
 *		elements.
 *
 *  Notes: This could be optimized by gathering selected elements near (how
 *      near?) each other into one I/O request and then moving the correct
 *      elements into the return buffer
