As i said elsewhere, endiannes is interesting for networking.

Maybe at the netdev conference next month, how to handle endiannes can
be part of the presentation? I'm guessing, but is it part of the type
system? So long as a type is marked as 'cpu endian', little endian, or
big endian, the compiler will take care of adding the needed swaps?
