I just tested AIX (RS6000, big endian) and the numbers are in big endian format.
I guess we just need to test big-endian Linux and we'll be sure.

I'm not sure what Ethereal can do about this. Either show the sequence number
as two bytes (not interprested as an integer), or show both big-endian and little-endian
formats of the sequence number.
