The Debian bug report is located at http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=348708 .
As stated there, I do not think this is a bug. The crc.cpp file
explicitly changes the output depending on the endianess of the host
achitecture, so the result has to be interpreted as a word, not a
sequence of bytes.
