A small point of interest. When working the Xbox 360, the above
endianness didn't work using a local variable.
In what sense did it not work?
Anyway, could you please try this?
volatile int x = 1;
(A *local* volatile var.)
It simply returned the wrong result. If I had understood PowerPC
assembly better at the time, I might be able to tell you why. Perhaps
it was a compiler bug, although it still continued to return the wrong
result 6 months after I made the change in the first place.
In any case, as of a month ago, I don't have access to Xbox 360s
anymore. If there is someone else on this list working with Xbox 360s,
perhaps they can give it a try and see if it is an issue anymore.
(The 'volatile' is an interesting trick. I should have thought about
doing that in the first place.)
