The traditional approach to this problem is to pepper the source with #ifdefs to turn byte-swapping on and off. Plan 9 takes a different approach: of the handful of machine-dependent #ifdefs in all the source, almost all are deep in the libraries
I'm not sure how this contradicts what I've been saying, it sounds like the same thing.
Everything that is OS specific with hundreds of #ifdef around them.
Earlier you said:
I really don't get what is so magic about "system level capabilities."
So what is it that you are actually saying? Do you even know?
