That specific line isn't the problem, as it's just cashing a short to
an unsigned short, which is legal and not problematic for any
endianness.

The actual problem is that PG(ignore_user_abort) is declared as a
short, but its INI handler method is defined as OnUpdateBool (which of
course, only operates on a single byte).

Yep.  And if things break on s390x, please let us know!

I'll put together a fix for this over the weekend and apply it to 7.0
and later versions.
