Can an object pickled and saved on a little-endian machine be unpickled
on a big-endian machine ?

Does python handle this in some manner  , by say having a flag to indicate
the endianess of the machine on which the object was pickled ?  And then
using this flag to decide how that data will be unpickled ?
