I'm not sure about this Reserved field. IMO any new future functionality should come with a format version bump, even if the on-disk layout stays the same. That means we can teach the reader to skip straight to NumEntries for v4 files.

----------------
I see. Is it possible to make the Entries array an array of ProfileSummaryEntry? We'd have to make the Cutoff field 64-bit, but it would help keep things in sync. That also lets us use the default copy-constructor here, i.e `TheSummary->Entries[I] = Res[I]`.
