 We've found that it's doing this deliberately in the Mono source. We 
 don't understand why. I guess you can close the bug.

+The BinaryWriter always writes values in little-endian format, so it
+will convert from big to little endian in a big-endian system.
+The BinaryReader expects input in little-endian format, and will
+convert to big-endian in big-endian systems.
+This means that systems using BinaryWriter/BinaryReader can share
+binary data without caring about byte order.
