Summary: SRE BIGCHARSET endianness fix

Initial Comment:
The current sre_compile works only on little-endian
machines for BIGCHARSET operations; the problem is that
_sre.c addresses the block indices as a byte array,
whereas sre_compile builds it as a short integer array.

This patch fixes the problem reported in

http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2001-July/015947.html

for SPARC Solaris.
