Subject: [PATCH] bloom_test failure on big endian archs

When running bloom_test on big endian machines it fails due to unacceptable

false positive rate. I've looked into the issue and it seems that the

reason for that is that it passes a different input than when it runs on

little endian. When transforming the input to be little endian it behaves

as expected.

This issue holds up inclusion of ceph to debian due to ceph's use of

leveldb. The fix can be to bump up the acceptable false positives.
