1) There is *NO* guarantee that you can safely dereference a misaligned
pointer.
2) There is *NO* guarantee that you are running on a little-endian
machine, so that an attempt to fetch a 32-bit integer through such a
pointer will fetch it in little-endian form.
Instead, fetch it using tvb_get_letohl(), which 1) doesn't care about
alignment and 2) always fetches in little-endian order.
