+ * The following function creates a CRC32 table depending on whether
+ * a big-endian (0x04c11db7) or little-endian (0xedb88320) CRC32 is 
+ * required. Admittedly, there are other CRC32 polynomials floating
+ * around, but Busybox doesn't use them.
+ *
+ * endian = 1: big-endian
+ * endian = 0: little-endian
