Jonathan Booth added the comment:

Ugly -- if I know I'm dealing with 4-byte data, I can't just specify 'I' or 'L' 
because it'll be wrong on some platform? Maybe the bug is really the module's 
design. Seems I need to look elsewhere for other reasons (array seems to want 
to copy memory, rather than sharing it, so I can't get two arrays one int, one 
byte with the same backing memory where changes to one effect the other), but 
that's all the more argument for me to switch off array anyway.

In any case, take it as the documentation wasn't particularly clear.
