Hi Andrew,

yes you we have compiled the toolchain to get the big-endian
libraries. It is the same problem as with the SNDS100 port 
which is also big-endian. 

In theory it is possible to run the AIM in little-endian 
mode, but therefor a special 0 Ohm resistor have to be 
equipped. But we decided to let big-endian to be the 
default behaviour, because it is the default of the 
S3C4510.
