Subject: [boost] [Endian] Reading/writing from/to byte buffers

Hi,
One often needs to read or write values from/to a buffer while having a
pointer. Could you support this?
I guess one could use *reinterpret_cast<big_int64_buf_t&>(*p) but I think
functions would be more convenient.
On second guess one probably has to use memcpy rather then reinterpret_cast.
The functions are probably implemented already but aren't exposed.
