I think the config test for sys/endian.h is too coarse.  I.e. a host
that have sys/endian.h, but the one which doesn't provide all the
atob* functions that ours does (e.g. FreeBSD) - will have build
problems.

I have been doing

    export ac_cv_header_sys_endian_h=no

in my build.sh wrapper for a long time (since I switched to FreeBSD
4.8 sometime in the summer), so that I just don't have to care.

SY, Uwe
