The original assumed LE archs: http://burtleburtle.net/bob/hash/spooky.html I wonder if it has been fixed ever since.

Not that I know of. But perhaps it just works assuming you don't want to interoperate with a LE producer.? After all hash functions may be tolerant of some permutations. Perhaps just run it through smhasher?

Thank you. Yeah, upon reading a few references I came to a conclusion that it should just not be compared to LE value-wise. But algorithm itself should work fine.
