+Summary: [PATCH] System.Convert isn't endian aware for the ConvertToBase methods
+
+Duncan,
+  I'm ccing you on this as it looks like you wrote these methods originally.  They aren't endian 
+aware and this is causing all web services hosted in XSP to fail on big endian systems (converting 
+a long to a base16 string).  The attached patch swaps if needed for BE systems.  TC is attached 
+as well..
