[Evolution] byte order of Evolution files

["Michael D. Crawford" <crawford goingware com>]

Does Evolution have a particular byte order for any of the binary files it 
creates, or does it just use the native byte order of the system its running on? 
 Can I move my Evolution file heirarchy from a machine with one byte order to 
another?
The reason I ask is that I have evolution installed on a PowerPC Macintosh 
running Debian sid.  This is a big-endian machine.  I don't have much disk space 
on that machine, but I recently put a big hard drive into a Pentium II machine 
running Debian Woody.  That's a little-endian machine.  I'd like to move my 
files (mailboxes + prefs + filters + whatever) to the Pentium II machine.
It would work to still run Evolution on the Mac but have the files served to it 
from the Pentium II box.  However, I would like to have the Mac in Mac OS 
sometimes, and Mac OS X some other times - I will be restarting it a lot, so 
it's not really a machine suitable for keeping my email on.  The Pentium II box, 
though, runs Linux 100% of the time.
If the byte orders on the different platform are different, can evolution work 
with a foreign byte order, or is there a tool that will byteswap the files?
I recall reading somewhere that Evolution makes use of DB2 databases.  That's 
one place byte order would be an issue.
Thanks,
