  Either one of the following patches fixes a bug appearing on big
endian machines where the returned XML is not the one that is expected
(see test/nwfilterxml2xmltest). The problem is due to for example the
casting of a pointers to unsigned integers to void * and then back to 16
bit integers.

I have prepared 2 different solutions for the problem. I think the one
with the union is the better one, which I am posting before the shorted
solution. Both solutions make the nwfilterxml2xmltest pass on a ppc64
machine.
I'd pick the one with the union too, so ACK to that one.
