Summary: FASCINATION: Assert during intro on BE machines

Initial Comment:
Using latest svn (r54141) the fascination intro aborts about halfway through with an assertion failed (common/stream.cpp:85) on BE machines.
It appears to be doing a SEEK_CUR 768 at the end of the file, which triggers the assert.

I've tried this revision on 2 LE machines (linux x86_64 and OS X Intel) where the problem doesn't occur, and 2 BE machines (IRIX and OS X PPC).

Also, reverting to r53982 (the revision prior to the gob engine 'DataIO rewrite') makes the problem go away as well.

I've attached a backtrace.
