    libext2fs: fix obvious big-endian bugs introduced by 64-bit changes
    
    These patches fix obvious bone-headed mistakes, so e2fsprogs will now
    build and mostly work on powerpc.  The m_meta_bg, u_mke2fs, and
    u_tune2fs tests are still failing, however, so there's still work to do...
    
    Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@xxxxxxx>

but not fixed yet.  Just a heads up, when contemplating a 1.42 release.  I will try to find some time to look into it, but it's not a simple regression, something must have gone wrong in the bowls of 64-bitness.
