The .match_method field is a u8, so we shouldn't be casting to a u16,
and because it is only one byte, we do not need to byte swap anything.
Just assign the value directly. This avoids issues on Big Endian
architectures which would have byte swapped and then incorrectly
truncated the value.

Not sure if this was already in Jeff's queue, but since it's an obvious
fix for the issue found by Stephen, I thought I'd send it out now just
to make sure. Thanks for catching this, and sorry we didn't find the fix
earlier.
