Bug #109204

This bug causes colours to be miscalculated when displaying charts in a gnumeric spreadsheet on powerpc (bigendian) computers.

It was fixed upstream by changing some functions for colour calculations in goffice/utils/go-image.c, these are within a
#if G_BYTE_ORDER == G_LITTLE_ENDIAN
so i386 should be unaffected.

The fix has been committed upstream and included in the 0.4 release of goffice
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=432532
http://svn.gnome.org/viewcvs/goffice?view=revision&revision=1730

A patch has been attached to this bug report.

The bug can be reproduced by:
opening Gnumeric
Insert-> Chart
select XY chart type, press insert
drag an area for the chart to be drawn on the spread sheet.

This patch fixes the bug on powerpc, and has been tested on powerpc and i386. No regressions have been reported
