You know, I've occasionally wondered what's the point of having a standard binary format (which has a performance cost compared to having one that uses platform-specific alignment and endianness) if you're not going to actually ship binary files. As Guy mentioned, there's a good reason to have an architecture-neutral binary format even if the tz project doesn't distribute them. That being said, it's a reasonable suggestion for us to distribute binary files as well. They could be in another tarball, say.
