1dnl @synopsis AC_C_BIGENDIAN_CROSS
2dnl
3dnl Check endianess even when crosscompiling (partially based on the
4dnl original AC_C_BIGENDIAN).
5dnl
6dnl The implementation will create a binary, but instead of running the
7dnl binary it will be grep'ed for some symbols that differ for
8dnl different endianess of the binary.
9dnl
10dnl NOTE: The upcoming autoconf 2.53 does include the idea of this
11dnl macro, what makes it superfluous by then.
