I inherited this one :-)

But you are right, this will at least require an entry in the NEWS, as
it alters some previous behavior.  *If* the arm users in the list decide
that the default should be little-endian.  It does seem reasonable and
if the file command straights it out, only the load users would have to
care (but they are more aware of these issues, and can always have the
set endian on their .gdbinit).

It is a shame that Angel is so buggy.  The return code should
appropriately indicate the endianess of the target  --  it would be a
nice feature to use :-(
