The person who wrote the viewer hard-coded the Intel endian scheme (byte
order).  You're using Motorolla byte order.  PPCs can use work with both,
you'll probably have to set some switches when compiling the affected
functions.  I don't have an assembler guide or Code Warrior manual sitting
in front of me, so I can't tell you how to do it.
