This is a behaviour change -- previously we did a load in
host-endian order, but now we do it in little-endian order.
Which is correct?

If we need host-endian, then we have lduw_he_p() for that.
If we need little-endian, then maybe other parts of the code
also are loading data in the wrong endianness?

thanks
