* Float and Double are serialised big-endian according to binary-ieee754
I'd like to point out that binary-ieee754 is dead slow[1] and not usable when one cares about performance. IMHO lack of ways to serialize floating point data in IEEE754 format is one of the problems of binary package.
[1] ~30 times slower that reading/writing with peek/poke although I had to patch binary for that.
