Thanks for the catch. The issue is that given the way LZ_MAGIC is
defined in lz_common.h, it will have a different value when running on a
big-endian or on a little-endian system. decode_32/encode_32 try to
handle endianness on their own, but in the case of LZ_MAGIC, we don't
want this special treatment to happen, so we need an extra endian swap.
I assume this is what you mean when you say we want to treat it as LE in
the log?
