   I take it you are also AdrianH, the original poster - same email   
   address, but different name? That's a little confusing.

   Well, your original post says "I only know a little about multi-endian   
   architectures, but IIRC, they have a way to automagicaly transfer data   
   from different endian segments correctly."   
      
   None of the processors I've ever used have variable endian settings.   
      
   But I'm not going to comment directly on your post, but ask you to   
   step back - what is the problem that you want to solve that makes you   
   want to specify endianness? Ditto for padding.
