Integer properties are always in big endian. This (incomplete) patch is my
suggested approach to deal with this. I'd like to receive input about it
before I complete it (checking all calls to grub_ieee1275_get_property
through GRUB and replacing with grub_ieee1275_get_integer_property when
appropiate).
Again, some testing on Apple/IBM/Genesi hardware would be nice.
