Perl write/readDouble assumes little-endian platform
----------------------------------------------------

                 Key: THRIFT-1171
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-1171
             Project: Thrift
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Perl - Library
    Affects Versions: 0.9
         Environment: Any big-endian system such as PPC Mac, Sparc, etc.
            Reporter: Andy Grundman
            Priority: Critical
         Attachments: perl-big-endian-double.patch

The code for handling doubles uses pack 'd' (pack to native byte order) and 
then reverses the bytes. This works on little-endian systems but will produce 
backwards data on big-endian systems.  Patch is attached.
