So IIUC the CPU that is build for supports MSA but its not big endian and our hand written MSA code depends on the cpu being big endian ? then i think its more correct to leave MSA enabled and put the code under #if HAVE_BIGENDIAN (or some other solution) using MSA to mean MSA on either endianness in some part of configure and otherwise have MSA mean MSA only on big endian in other parts is a recipe for alot of confusion [...] -- Michael GnuPG fingerprint: 9FF2128B147EF6730BADF133611EC787040B0FAB Let us carefully observe those good qualities wherein our enemies excel us and endeavor to excel them, by avoiding what is faulty, and imitating what is excellent in them. -- Plutarch
