No, trunk has this, for example:

  const signed int __builtin_altivec_vclzlsbb_v16qi (vsc);
    VCLZLSBB_V16QI vctzlsbb_v16qi {endian}

So the backport matches what is on trunk.  

Throughout the new builtin infrastructure, the defaults are set for
little-endian, and the "endian" flag changes behavior for big-endian.

Okay.

This was added by David Edelsohn to the trunk version of the patch, because
-mbig actually is not supported on all subtargets.  (I found that quite
surprising also.)  Apparently this doesn't work on AIX, for example.  But 
-mlittle works everywhere.  Go figure.

That's something that should be fixed, I guess, but it's orthogonal
to this patch.

Thanks!
