I see bitfields and I think this is not going to work on big endian
arches because unfortunately they "fill" the bytes with bits in opposite
order.

We had to rework old Unixsphere code to get rid of bitfields for on-wire
data; this seems to be coming from that code base as well and so needs
to be reworked too.

Thanks.
