Hi Scott,
I am sorry but I can't speak intelligently about the suitability of my endian
implementation for this particular purpose.
Perhaps someone else with some experience in cryptographic hash functions can
comment.
I didn't want to just ignore your comment but this simply isn't an area of my
expertise.
