Maybe I am missing something, but I think both can (and should) use the
standard Vector. The idea of this concept is to allow one to change the
endianess of the array elements, not the order of the elements in the
array. Both checkliteral and dumpSize use arrays of chars, so endianess
is not an issue.

Because endianess is not an issue, they could use blocks instead
of vectors, but it is seems simpler to keep the rules.
