That would only tell you for which platform the particular binary
you're running was compiled. It would not tell which particular
microprocessor chip you were running on at runtime.
In particular, it would give you the wrong answer for a PPC binary
running on an Intel chip via Rosetta.
Right, but it seems to me that that's what you would want. I can
think of reasons to need to know what endianness your code is running
under, but so far haven't thought of any reason to care if your
BigEndian code is actually running under Rosetta on an Intel chip.
Best,
