There's already a bug in RT for this, with a patch, and a similar statement about 64-bit big endian architectures; I haven't checked to see if the two patches are the same, but it sounds like they may be. https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=89552 I would say "whoever fixes it first, everybody wins".
