>From the bug report:
After JDK-8318913, trying to cross-compile to a different endian target than
the build host is using, will cause the interim image generation to fail:
[buildjdk] Creating interim jimage
Error: specified --endian LITTLE_ENDIAN does not match endianness of target
platform linux-s390
java.io.IOException: specified --endian LITTLE_ENDIAN does not match endianness
of target platform linux-s390

InterimImage.gmk:47: recipe for target
'/localhome/git/jdk-BAR/build/linux-s390x/support/interim-image/bin/java' failed
This has only been spotted when cross-compiling from x64 to s390x, but it seems
to be a general endianness problem.

In fact, it was technically a problem with how we generate all interim images,
but apparently the platform mistake did not affect jlink apart from when
cross-compiling and the endianness was off.
