Good suggestion. In my mind, however, what this code really does is
allow me to handle other-endian values, and the packing just comes along
with it as a bonus. Also, if I was searching for something to handle
other-endian data, I wouldn't be searching for "packed". Even so, I
think this name is definitely worth considering.
