Hi Jamie,

The "cos~" problem I should have anticipated... if we're in MacOSX,
the code assumes big-endian... I think.  Proably the __FreeBSD_ test
could also include MAXOSX, assuming it defines the constants
BYTE_ORDER and LITTLE_ENDIAN in a unix-ish way...

#ifdef __FreeBSD__

... would become...

#if defined (__FreeBSD__) || defined(MACOSX)

cheers
Miller

PS There might be 1 or 2 other endianness tests in the code...
