I just changed the GL_UNSIGNED_*_REV to non _REV and it seems to work
ok.  I do have one strange patch where pix_movie is all messed up, but
other patches with pix_movie work fine.

The #ifdef is probably the most straightforward method for this -
although I am not sure what the best on to use for PPC or x86 is.
I've been using __VEC__ which is wrong, but I know it works as long as
the PPC build process sets the -faltivec flag.  Apple says not to use
__i386__ and __LITTLE_ENDIAN__ only if you must.  I suspect they say
that to use there own detection and btye swapping functions, but who
knows.
