Is the HP/UX machine big-endian or little-endian?  Rather, what type of
processor does it have?

Greetings!

The output of 'od -x filename' appears to be reversed
character-by-character.
Let's say file 'junk' cpontains '121212'.

In HP/UX  'od -x junk' yields   3132 3132 3132

In cygwin it yields 3231 3231 3231

Any ideas?

cygcheck.out is attached.

System is a recent beta (about 2 months old) on Windows 98.

Thanks very much.
