What about clang?
Not good news about clang support. This is what the toolchain team said about it:
The -mbig-endian option was added around April 10th, 2014. Unfortunately, those who implemented it only implemented it for ARM and one other architecture.
The option is currently accepted on Power systems, but does not have any affect on the code generation for Power.
So, what can we do here? Maybe add a constrain in the configure file saying that it's not possible to build GRUB in a LE environment using clang.
