-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 According to Peter O'Gorman on 8/13/2008 12:13 PM: | Hi, | | "checking whether byte ordering is bigendian... universal" is not the | correct answer on powerpc-ibm-aix. The question is not really correct | either (yes/no question, answer is neither yes nor no), but that is | beside the point. | | As far as I know, it is only possible to built differently endian output | on Mac OS X with Apple's gcc. Would a patch to limit the check for | universal to when __APPLE_CC__ is defined be accepted? The brokenness of AC_C_BIGENDIAN has been known for some time now, still without a patch. At this point, any approach is better than none, so it might be worth posting your ideas. - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
