Of course, little endian (i386 is a little endian architecture). The
signature MUST be present in any boot loader, hence it is a bug in
Unixware.
However, if you really want, I can add an option like `--force' into
the command chainloader so that you can load any image forcibly. (I
dislike such an option, though.)
