You must have something wrong with your build environment. I just 
downloaded (again) the insight+dejagnu-weekly-20010424.tar.bz2 snapshot 
from sources and built it on this system:

$ uname -a
CYGWIN_98-4.10 ANYWHERE 1.1.8(0.34/3/2) 2001-01-31 i586 unknown
$ gcc -v
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-cygwin/2.95.2-6/specs
gcc version 2.95.2-6 19991024 (cygwin experimental)

I installed it, too. Ran as expected. Something is really, really wrong 
with your setup.

You don't need to do anything. Gdb will automatically switch to 
big-endian if your executable is big-endian:

(gdb) show endian
The target endianness is set automatically (currently little endian)

All you need to do is make arm-elf-gcc output big-endian code.
