[Mono-devel-list] BitConverter on big-endian-Systems (xScale?)

[Robert Shade]

On OS X that test outputs:

                  argument                    byte array
                  --------                    ----------
         0.111111111111111       3F-BC-71-C7-1C-71-C7-1C
                 0.1111111                   3D-E3-8E-39
       1111111111111111111       0F-6B-75-AB-2B-C4-71-C7
                1111111111                   42-3A-35-C7
                     11111                         2B-67
                         *                         00-2A
                      True                            01

Looks platform endian to me.  Anyone have rotor installed on PPC to  
compare?
