It seems that autoconfig 2.62 added an extra state or two for  
AC_C_BIGENDIAN. While ppc could be either big or little endian, Apple  
has always set up theirs to match the motorola 68k bigendian scheme.

For me, the solution for the configure failure was to add another  
branch to the endian test that set LC_ENDIAN_BIG to 1 if the test  
returned 'universal'.

Now I can build trunk, but I'm not sure how to proceed in packaging  
from a tarball to get configure updated.

The next question I have is how to tell that libchipcard works. I  
don't have a card or an account that uses one. Are there enough tests  
in the build that I can expect it to work if I make it available  
through fink?
