For example the double value of 128.  
0000 0000 0000 6040  -> normal little endian IEEE
0000 6040 0000 0000  -> on my xscale it is
 
I am new to xscale but this seems pretty bizarre. I
have found some mention of it in the arm groups, but
not much detail.  I'm researching now to see if this
strange format can be changed via compile options, I
was hoping someone here might have run into it before.

Thanks for the suggestions.

Jeff
