I suspect that it has something to do with the byteorder.  Starting from
REV 7.5, ERDAS files across all platforms use a single file format, which
uses, among other things, INTEL byteorder. This means you need to byte-swap
the values in the header before you can use them, on machines like SUN's or
any other MOTOROLA based machines.
