Exactly. 

Chris Wang seems challenged when given a request and following it. I asked how
he knew his drive was little endian in comments #7 and #9. Lots of other
verbiage, but nothing on that. In comment #14 I asked him to verify with
cd-read whether he gets the same order between a big endian CPU and a little
endian one. Again, more comments and opinions but not what was asked of him. 

My own tests on Solaris Sparc don't seem to match his, although I haven't tried
specifically with gstreamer. But as a reliable source for information for what
his specific situation is or what his setup is, I'm a little bit hesitant. And
thus for that same reason his conclusions seem a little suspect too. See
comment #10 where cdparanoia is mentioned which may or (more likely) may not be
in use.

One could wait for someone else to have the problem and get more information
from that.

And as I wrote in comment #14, if it is the case gstreamer has a bug, given the
way it's solved in other media players, the bug may not be in cdiocddasrc, but
elsewhere. ANd if I were involved in this I'd probably would want to determine
this too.
