| Title | PoolAWL doesn't work with auto_header formats |

| Description | PoolAWL (automatic weak linked) works with format classes "A" and "B" but not "auto_header". |
| Analysis | The simple fix is to add format->headerSize to any pointer being given to a format method, and to subtract it from any pointer returned from a format method. Barring any indication that this is too slow; we will adopt it for now. |
| How found | customer |
| Evidence | Configura have asked for this repeatedly. |
