Description:
------------
ext/ffi/tests/040.phpt TC fails as the actual output obtained on big endian doesnt match the expected output which is specific to little endian arch.

FFI\CType data stores an int value as int32_t datatype comprising of 4 bytes, when the same variable is type casted to int8_t[4](an array of int8_t), the value returned on little endian is

FFI\CData:int8_t[4] Object
(
[0] => 5
[1] => 0
[2] => 0
[3] => 0
)

whereas the output obtained on big endian is :
FFI\CData:int8_t[4] Object
(
[0] => 0
[1] => 0
[2] => 0
[3] => 5
)
