I know this note...
This program prints "big endian" on both HP-UX IA64 and LINUX_64:
2 int
3 main(int argc, char **argv)
4 {
5 union {
6 short s;
7 char c[sizeof(short)];
8 } un;
9 un.s = 0x0102;
10 printf("%s: ", CPU_VENDOR_OS);
11 if (sizeof(short) == 2) {
12 if (un.c[0] == 1 && un.c[1] == 2)
13 printf("big-endian\n");
14 else if (un.c[0] == 2 && un.c[1] == 1)
15 printf("little-endian\n");
16 else
17 printf("unknown\n");
18 } else
19 printf("sizeof(short) = %d\n", sizeof(short));
20 exit(0);
21 }
So I don't quite get issue..
