I thought it was the other way around (might be wrong) but I thought PPC and
the 68000 series from motorola were LittleEndian and Intel (and compatibles)
were big endians.

I'd think you could just make a MemoryBlock and check its .LittleEndian
property. That should be true if running (natively) on an Intel chip, and
false if running on a PPC chip.
