Then why is ICU mapping UTF-16 to UTF16_PlatformEndian and not
UTF16_BigEndian? I know that was a difference between ICU and my library,
and when I asked this question a while ago I was told that despite what some
litterature suggests, w/o any clue, platform endianness should be used.
That's contradictory.
