In my tests with the GNU toolchains at least, autotools' endian checks did succeed. Whether that will end up with valid binaries, I don't know since I don't have MIPS hardware to test on. It also appeared that the two different compilers (mips and mipsel) had different endianness. Surely this is a compiler level issue, no? Is it normal for a single compiler to produce a MIPS binary that runs in both big and little endian modes? I don't have enough MIPS experience to know, but that would be a surprise to me. - Chris |
