How about this...
template<endian_t From, class T>
T convert_to_host(void* buf); // Coverts/copies a physical format into a
big-/little-endian physical format.
and
template<endian_t To, class T>
void convert_from_host(const T& x, void* buf); // Converts/copies a T into
a big-/little-endian physical format.
and
template<endian_t From, endian_t To, class T>
void convert_in_place(T& x); // Convert an object supposedly in 'From'
endian format to an object in 'To' endian format in place.
