Are you talking about this code here?

    void
    shadowUpdatePacked (ScreenPtr pScreen,
                        shadowBufPtr pBuf)
    {
    ...
                    while (i--)
                        *win++ = *sha++;



Do I endian-swap each *sha?  Or, do I reorder the sha array before
dereferencing it (e.g. each *sha is right, but adjacent ones are in the
wrong order)?


b.g.
