           Summary: Bytecode writer writes float/double in machine specific
                    endianess
           Product: libraries
           Version: trunk
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Bytecode Writer
        AssignedTo: unassignedbugs at nondot.org
        ReportedBy: rspencer at x10sys.com


This appears to be a regression from 1.2.

The bytecode writer is writing out float and double values using the output_data
method which just writes the memory to the file, in platform-specific endianess.
The bytecode format is supposed to support little endianess for binary values so
this breaks bytecode compatibility across platforms.
