Before this change, when such a image was being launched, the code would assume the byte order in the image to be the native order of the host where the image is being launched. That would result in failure to launch java, as noted in the linked issue.

I assume this should be renamed to something like PLATFORM_PROPERTIES as the properties are not specific to endianness now.
