Hudson commented on THRIFT-1171:
--------------------------------
Integrated in Thrift #155 (See
[https://builds.apache.org/hudson/job/Thrift/155/])
Thrift-1171: Perl write/readDouble assumes little-endian platform
Client: perl
Patch: Andy Grundman
The code for handling doubles uses pack 'd' (pack to native byte order) and
then reverses the bytes. This works on little-endian systems but will produce
backwards data on big-endian systems.
