I can't find any endian.h file on my system, that may be because
unfortunately I'm using newlib hosted on Cygwin but the file isn't part
of either gcc 2.95.2, 3.1 or 3.2 or Newlib 1.8.0 or 1.12.0 for either
ARM or SH (or for Cygwin).

Thanks - it would have been nice if I had found the file, embarrassing,
but nice.
