Ahh, I hadn't noticed < and > in the pack/unpack docs. It is there in my Perl 5.14 Pocket Reference, but somewhat buried over the page in the middle of a large paragraph. They seem not to be mentioned in the 5.10 version of the reference, but poking around with perldoc indicates the endien modifiers are new in 5.10. Maybe that's why I wasn't aware of them?
Anyway, much cleaner, thank you.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

are good places to start.
