I think what you need to do is tell ld what the desired target is. something
like :
arm-uclinux-ld --target elf32-bigarm ...
of course you could probably save yourself some heartache by rebuilding the
tools to default to big-endian. You want to edit the config.bfd file in the
bfd directory of the binutils source.
there is a section for the "arm-*-elf" target. what you want to do is make
the default bfd_elf32_bigarm_vec and add little to the optional targets.
Good luck with it!
