Will the spin-table code always be built as little endian? If so, then either the kernel or the spin code could handle this difference, and we need to decide which will do it. If not, then the only way is for the spin code to do it as the kernel has no way to tell endian mode of the spin code, unless to test and save how it was entered at startup. Let me know your thoughts. -Geoff
