It's not about byte ordering. '@' and '=' also change the alignment!

The documentation says it well:
- '@' (or no marker) uses the 'native' alignment, which (on every platform I 
know) aligns 4-bytes ints to multiple of 4 bytes.
- '=' uses the 'standard' alignment which is: "no alignment is required for any 
type"
