My original post gave one example, here's another:
static struct type *
mips_float_register_type (void)
{
if (TARGET_BYTE_ORDER == BFD_ENDIAN_BIG)
return builtin_type_ieee_single_big;
else
return builtin_type_ieee_single_little;
}
Is all over the place. This:
builtin_type_ieee_single[gdbarch_byte_order (gdbarch)]
is shorter and correct.

local to gdb?
