OK!

André (who re-wrote the libdvbv5 parsers to be more generic)
preferred the approach of keeping the structs in CPU-endian, as it
makes easier from application PoV, as the conversion happens only once
at the library.

That's not the case here. We can fill the structs in big endian,
converting to CPU-endian only on the few places we may need to read
back from it.

Yep.
