Well, this is what I prefer to use as well, but there is existing
uint32_t* code that might get fixed someday, and not everyone does
things the same way or has read and heeded that one little we add
somewhere in a comment that says to use byte pointer. Also, if someone
uses asm with SIMD, they could find it useful.

The problem is that they are different codes:

#if F0R_BYTE_ORDER == F0R_LITTLE_ENDIAN

vs.

if (F0R_LITTLE_ENDIAN)

So, I suggest we just leave out the exception for Solaris until we get a patch.
