Is the safe serializer affected by byte order? If not, you could just
mark this off as a known bug, and say "if anyone has a big-endian
system to test this on, please help out". It would be another
incentive to use the safe serializer rather than pickle. And it'd save
you a lot of trouble. :)

I would have offered one of my systems for the test, except ...
they're all little-endian. I'm all PC-based hardware here (mainly
Linux running on Intel CPUs, though there are some variations).
