I _found_ that in bitfield records, with high endian archs gcc starts 
with filling the high bits, while with low endian archs it starts with 
filling the lower bits in the basic type that is given. IMHO this in 
fact does make sense.

I did not find a documentation about this and have no idea whether it is 
likely that other compilers work similar.
