Tests 261 and 272 fail on RHEL 7 with coreutils 8.22, since od
--endian was not added until coreutils 8.23.  Fix this by manually
constructing the final value one byte at a time.

Reports large 8-byte values as negative, whereas the pre-patch version 
reported them as positive.  To preserve behavior, we should squash in:

I don’t know how you did it, but something in your workflow broke this
patch.  This should be -56,18 +56,30.

(Note that git accepts this patch without error, but it drops everything
after the first part.  I noticed because your squash-in failed to apply.
 I suppose I might have noticed later when reviewing, because only
peek_file_le() was touched, but who knows.)

“i” is a weird name for something that isn’t an index.

Regarding the broken patch format again: There are no spaces here...

...and here like there normally would be.

With the patch format fixed, and your proposed to-be-squashed patch
squashed in, there isn’t anything wrong, so:

But if I’m already about to squash something in, would you allow me to
rename all instances of “i” to e.g. “byte”?

I'm not sure, either.  Would me sending a v2 make it easier?

I'll do that on a v2.
