Ref:
binutils_ppc-2.16.1,REV=2005.12.23-SunOS5.8-i386-CSW.pkg.gz

Yes. The build is clean and should represent
big-endian (I thought Solaris was little endian and
then endian-neutral. Maybe I missed that memo. I
remember PowerPC was able to switch between endians at
one time...)

I'll try to spot some time to go over the latest
PowerPC and POWER architectures in which maybe this is
a light at the end of a big tunnel for us. Please have
someone from Sun/Freescale/Genesi check our progress
and work so we don't go down a wrong path.

Thanks,
