Oh, that's clear, of course: the PPC architecture is big endian...

The unit tests may fail, but it should still be possible to use the
binary protocol on this platform (and then only there!) if you stick
to using converters derived by the macro preprocessor.

If anybody feels like implementing the feature that big endian
architectures write out data in little endian format (only the C-stubs
need to be adapted), then I'll gladly add that patch...

Regards,
Markus
