The test suite simply matches output strings, it's not very intelligent
about stuff like that (unfortunately).

I didn't apply this change because I'm not exactly sure where I want to
go with this yet.  I'm not excited about tweaking the test suite based
on the endianness of the underlying system but it seems silly to reduce
the performance of the hash to make it consistent across endianness as
well.

Will fix this before 4.3 is released though.
