Is this really what we want?
(The answer from my pov is "NO")
IMHO we want to use native endianess internally, and I do not get why
anything should care about what we do internally.\
AFAIU that's exactly what Georg' patch is doing: making sure that we use
the native endianess internally regardless of iconv potential ambiguity.
