This is causing a build failure on ppc-aix, for instance, due to:

    /[...]ctf.c:223:28: error: 'BYTE_ORDER' undeclared (first use in this function)
    /[...]ctf.c:223:28: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in
    /[...]ctf.c:223:42: error: 'LITTLE_ENDIAN' undeclared (first use in this function)

I don't know how to fix this, because I am not sure whether host
or target endianness were meant. I asssume from the code that it
was host, but not sure how the host endianess would make sense...

What also worries me is that I don't seem to see approval for commit
for this patch. I know both of you are very careful, so perhaps in
a separate message not linked to this sub-thread?
