#
# SYNOPSIS
#
#   AX_C_BIGENDIAN_CROSS
#
# DESCRIPTION
#
#   Check endianess even when crosscompiling (partially based on the
#   original AC_C_BIGENDIAN).
#
#   The implementation will create a binary, but instead of running the
#   binary it will be grep'ed for some symbols that differ for different
#   endianess of the binary.
#
#   NOTE: The upcoming autoconf 2.53 does include the idea of this macro,
#   what makes it superfluous by then.
