Formula results are not dependent on the endianness of the 
machine, for the spreadsheet file formats that store both formula 
and result (XLS, ODS, and I suppose OOXML).  They're stored in 
some known canonical format, typically as 'C' locale text or 
little-endian doubles.  They might depend on hardware etc for 
specially complex/sensitive calculations.
