I suppose this is because you are moving binary data from a small endian
architecture to big endian one, Sun Sparc i suppose?

The simplest would be to use rrdtool with the 'dump' and 'restore'
options. Ie. on the small endian box:

rrdtool dump foo.rrd > foo.xml

And then on the big endian box:

rrdtool restore foo.xml foo.rrd
