Indeed, it has nothing to do with big endian - ARM is little endian I think.

The reason why this was traditionally necessary is that char is unsigned by
default on these architectures, and code coming from other architectures tends
to assume that char is signed by default. That said, it would definitely be nice
if all those bugs have been fixed, but we need to watch out for odd problems
getting reported on these architectures.
