Yup. The 68K is big endian, so the bytes 0x00 and 0x01 together form the
word 0x0001 = 1. (In the alternative little-endian world, the bytes 0x00 and
0x01 would form the word 0x0100 = 256.)

I'd guess that you used a version number of 1 in your PrefSetAppPreferences
call at some point in the past, and that's when the session got created.
