endianness problem with GPT labels

[Lyonel Vincent]

Hello,

I've just found the following problem (with parted-1.7.0rc4 on
Linux/PPC):

> $ parted /dev/sda
> GNU Parted 1.7.0rc4
> Using /dev/sda
> Welcome to GNU Parted! Type 'help' to view a list of commands.

The GPT on this disk is actually version 1.00.

This looks very much like a problem with endianness on PowerPC:
GuidPartitionTableHeader_t.Revision is actually big-endian.

cheers,
Lyonel.
