One should not *care* which endian-ness with the new macros. On a
big-endian platform, that code should do exactly the same thing as the
replacement MSBFIRST code...
However, I see a typo in the four_bytes version (a few pair of missing
parentheses); try using:
#define four_bytes_vax_to_nets(x) ((((((x[3]<<8)|x[2])<<8)|x[1])<<8)|x[0])
and see if that gets the correct behavior.
