These routines are used within BFD.
They are not intended for export, but are documented here for
completeness.

<p><strong>Description</strong><br>
Write a 4 byte integer <var>i</var> to the output BFD <var>abfd</var>, in big
endian order regardless of what else is going on.  This is useful in
archives.

<h4 class="subsubsection">2.15.1.3 <code>bfd_get_size</code></h4>
<p><strong>Description</strong><br>
These macros as used for reading and writing raw data in
sections; each access (except for bytes) is vectored through
the target format of the BFD and mangled accordingly. The
mangling performs any necessary endian translations and
removes alignment restrictions.  Note that types accepted and
returned by these macros are identical so they can be swapped
around in macros&mdash;for example, <samp>libaout.h</samp> defines <code>GET_WORD</code>
to either <code>bfd_get_32</code> or <code>bfd_get_64</code>.
</p>
<p>In the put routines, <var>val</var> must be a <code>bfd_vma</code>.  If we are on a
system without prototypes, the caller is responsible for making
sure that is true, with a cast if necessary.  We don&rsquo;t cast
them in the macro definitions because that would prevent <code>lint</code>
or <code>gcc -Wall</code> from detecting sins such as passing a pointer.
To detect calling these with less than a <code>bfd_vma</code>, use
<code>gcc -Wconversion</code> on a host with 64 bit <code>bfd_vma</code>&rsquo;s.
