.SH DESCRIPTION
These routines swap between LSBF (little-endian) and MSBF (big-endian)
byte orders.  The specified quantities are swapped in-place.  There
are two versions of most routines: a generic one that works on
quantities regardless of memory alignment (gswap#) and one that works
on memory aligned quantities (gswap#a).  The versions for memory
aligned quantities are much faster than their generic versions, but
the memory *must* be aligned.  You have been warned. There is only a
generic version for 3-byte quantities.
