BTW, I just tested that & it should be "big" for consistency with the
hexdigest:

Python 3.3.2+ (default, Feb 28 2014, 00:52:16) 
[GCC 4.8.1] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import hashlib
>>> h0 = hashlib.sha1(bytes('pants', 'UTF-8')).digest()
>>> h1 = hashlib.sha1(bytes('pants', 'UTF-8')).hexdigest()
>>> int.from_bytes(h0, 'big')
1315090007003469710610607131160586168131917298749
>>> int.from_bytes(h0, 'little')
352462323236431222976527983157432783788229548774
>>> int(h1, 16)

Thanks.
