Perfectly.

Yes, no, maybe ;-)  The 'endian' problem has been addressed.  But, I'm
not sure if it is in the current release.  Probably not.  Basically, the
network to host and/or host to network conversion functions were
utilized to make SWISH-E's index file endian-neutral.  I have a copy of
the required changes somewhere.  They're likely in the patches directory
on the SWISH-E site, though.

Let me know if you don't find them.
