That's a marked departure from the usual GNU indentation style, which would
be either what I wrote or breaking the line before the '=' and indenting
the new line two spaces.  But OK.

That makes sense.

Ok, I'll leave it to you then.  IMHO it would be worthwhile to break out
the boilerplate of calling the appropriate template flavor of
define_special_symbol (and now sometimes not) into a common subroutine.

Hmm.  I notice that my addition doesn't #ifdef the use, so it's calling
both endian flavors even if a configuration doesn't have both.  I'll fix
that.

I've made the two changes above in my local copy, and won't bother
reposting since you know exactly what it looks like.


Thanks,
