I spent some more time on this topic and I have a few more patches to 
send you.

The first patch is straight forward. It fixes host endian order issues 
in the offb code when accessing the OF device tree properties. 

The following patch is more of an attempt to fix the pseudo-palette 
entries on little endian. Hopefully this is the good direction. If not, 
I still have some hair to pull out :)
