I did not try that yet. H.J. Lu told me that he is not seeing any
problems with 2.11.90.0.29 and kernels for little endian boxes...
Anyway I have attached a more complete patch against .29 (which also
make the Oopses in si_swapinifo go away). I hope some binutils folks can
provide some more input on that...
