ifort actually uses -convert big_endian or -convert little_endian to
supply defaults.  This is better than specifying byteswapping,
because it is (if set) platform-independent.

We could also use environment variables the same way that ifort
does.

Three ways to specify the same thing... but I think there's a need
for that.
