Description:
Cluster nodes in the same cluster cannot (yet) be of different endianness. In the event that a node is communicating with an ndb_mgmd of a different endianness, it should refuse to start and report an error. Currently it just sat there and did nothing.

How to repeat:
Try having a ndbd (on x86) communicate with ndb_mgmd, ndbd etc (on ppc).

Suggested fix:
bk commit - 4.1 tree (stewart:1.2126)
bk commit - 4.1 tree (stewart:1.2127)

these have been pushed.
