probably (but it wouldn't be difficult to check that anyway).

Yes, I did verify that they are all unsigned int, not just relying on
that.  :-)

hmmm. I suppose that the literals in the macro are int by definition?

/* convert the bytes of a 32-bit integer to little endian */
#define BSWAP32(c)
((c>>24)&0xff)|((c>>8)&0xff00)|((c<<8)&0xff0000)|(c<<24)

(or are you convinced it is OK?)

Seems to work fine under Solaris, otherwise nobody would be able to
download anything because the IP address would be reversed.

works OK for me too under linuxppc (with default compiler options - got
anything weird specified?).
