It turns that my cfitsio2.diff was broken on MIPS. The attached one is a new revision which is compile and runtime tested on a MIPSEL machine (vaughan). I'm not going to test this on MIPS B-E or ARM because it's trivial enough that doesn't warrant the trouble of installing the build-dependencies on the porter machines. It was time-consuming enough to test on MIPSEL... I also found out that checking for __ARMEL__ should be enough to separate the big-endian from the little-endian ARM. (Although I'd prefer checking for __BYTE_ORDER == __LITTLE_ENDIAN/__BIG_ENDIAN...)
I will NMU these bugs if the maintainer doesn't respond in a week. Regards, Faidon
