== Progress ==
- Validation of my vext patch in big-endian mode proved that proper
support would be non-trivial. Spent a lot of time writing a self-testing executable test, which works in both big and little endian modes. Posted an updated patch which makes no optimization in big-endian. After discussion with Ramana, I will post a 2nd patch which improves the testing in big-endian mode.
- In the process, wrote a patch to fix 3 other testcases which used to
fail in big-endian mode.
- Received no answer from the original contributor of bswap16 support patch.
That's OK. If it's been a week then we should move on. Be careful with the copyright - unfortunately you'll have to start from scratch and shouldn't even read his version :(
