I think you have this backwards.

On OpenBSD/sparc64
$ gcc -dM -E - < /dev/null | grep BIG
$
$ sysctl hw.byteorder
hw.byteorder=4321

endian.h defines BYTE_ORDER and it should be included to test it.

I was under the impression the headers on linux had similiar defines.

Look at how src/gallium/include/pipe/p_config.h does it.
