+- enlarge the set of Architectures supported by bin-prot. On one hand we can
+  (in theory) enlarge it to the set of all little endian architectures, see
+  http://wiki.debian.org/ArchitectureSpecificsMemo for a reference. On the
+  other hand, we will need sooner or later to support also big endian
+  architecture (patch needed)

+Description: type-safe binary serialization for OCaml values
+ bin-prot provides functionalities for reading and writing OCaml-values
+ in a type-safe binary protocol.
+ .
+ These functions provide a safe way of performing I/O on any
+ extensionally defined data type. Functions, objects, and values whose
+ type is bound through a polymorphic record field are not supported, but
+ everything else is.
+ .
+ There is no support for cyclic or shared values and only little endian
+ computer architectures are supported.
+
