    libctf: we do in fact support foreign-endian old versions
    
    The worry that caused this to not be supported was because we don't
    bother endian-flipping version-related fields before checking them.
    But they're all unsigned chars anyway, and don't need any flipping at
    all.
    
    This should be supported and should already work.  Enable it.
    
    libctf/
            * ctf-open.c (ctf_bufopen): Don't prohibit foreign-endian
            upgrades.
