Serhiy Storchaka added the comment:

I agree, it is worth bring order to work with endianess. We can get rod of 
BYTEORDER_IS_BIG_ENDIAN and BYTEORDER_IS_LITTLE_ENDIAN in 
Objects/unicodeobject.c, IS_LITTLE_ENDIAN in Objects/longobject.c, tests in 
other modules. I don't see the necessity in new macros. WORDS_BIGENDIAN is 
enough.

If something failing on a big endian Solaris, build script should just define 
WORDS_BIGENDIAN.
