Hi Rich,

That looks fine.
Two suggestions and a question:

If you add those on a separate line, not only will these related
checks be all by themselves (less risk of eventual conflict, however small),
you'll also avoid going over the 80-col line-length limit ;-)

AC_CHECK_FUNCS([ntohl htonl ntohs htons])

A different name file name might be nice, so this file is not
confused (by people) with the system-provided <byteswap.h>.
Maybe byteswap-pxdr.h or something similar.

Where is BYTE_ORDER defined?  normally in endian.h.
More curiosity than anything, since I'm sure it works
everywhere you built it.  I sort of expected to
see an "#include <endian.h>" somewhere.
