After looking at configure.in I've found these:
| AC_MSG_CHECKING(for cpu type)
| case `uname -p` in
| powerpc)
| AC_MSG_RESULT(powerpc)
| CPPFLAGS="${CPPFLAGS} -D__BIG_ENDIAN__"
| ;;
| *)
| AC_MSG_RESULT(other)
| CPPFLAGS="${CPPFLAGS} -D__LITTLE_ENDIAN__"
| ;;
| esac
This is bogus for a few reason. "uname -p" returns usually unknown :) The
intention was probably to use the -m option but then it should match
against ppc. Even that is wrong. The application should never try to define it
itself. Take a look on this:
|bigeasy@baako:~$ gcc -o endian endian.c
|bigeasy@baako:~$ ./endian
|BIG ENDIAN
|bigeasy@baako:~$ gcc -o endian endian.c -D__LITTLE_ENDIAN__
|In file included from /usr/include/endian.h:37,
| from endian.c:2:
|/usr/include/bits/endian.h:27:4: error: #error Both BIG_ENDIAN and
LITTLE_ENDIAN defined!
|bigeasy@baako:~$ cat endian.c
|#include <stdio.h>
|#include <endian.h>
|
|int main(void)
|{
| printf("%s\n",
|#ifdef __BIG_ENDIAN__
| "BIG ENDIAN"
|#endif
|#ifdef __LITTLE_ENDIAN__
| "LITTLE ENDIAN"
|#endif
| );
| return 0;
|}
Please find attach a patch. It seems to build now but I have no clue if
it works. A testsuite could show that :)

I think we can close it this way ;-)
Let's try again. :)
