You can work on this, once Paul has created an

No, sorry maybe I worded my original email awkwardly. :)
I think all of the BSDs have which define:
#define LITTLE_ENDIAN 1234
#define BIG_ENDIAN 4321

Yes, those might be a good reason for a Gnulib endian module,

True. But I don't think C23 has

I'm working on a Gnulib that will work on pre-C23 platforms.
Eventually this should replace Gnulib's count-leading-zeros,
count-trailing-zeros, and count-one-bits modules, which should be

And we're not yet done with the header file substitutes. One is still missing
from Gnulib: [1]. The only thing that has changed since last year
is that glibc 2.39 now has this heade
