Just make sure that if you are moving to a new platform, that the data  
formats match those expected by SQLite. This is especially important  
for platforms with weird floating point formats. For example, on ARM  
platforms there are a couple floating point formats, and the  
SQLITE_MIXED_ENDIAN_64BIT_FLOAT compile switch helps accommodate them.

SQLite provides support to get this right:
