Sorry about this. I'm kind of surprised about myself ...

I started my computer career with mainframes, that is, German Telefunken
machines since 1977
and, since 1982, IBM. So big endian should be natural to me. But it
seems as if things have changed
somehow. Well, I also started with Intel development in 1980, ca. (CP/M
operating system).

The thing is: when we develop new versions of the insurance math
package, it is first done
on Windows, then tested on Linux-64, then compiled and tested on z Arch.
This may be the
reason for me changing my point of view, at least sometimes.

Sorry again, kind regards

Bernd

That's funny; I have endian issues with Intel.
