    IBM Z: Fix endianess problem in pid_memory_read
    
    The cached reads lack the big endian adjustments done in the fallback
    path.
    
    Signed-off-by: Andreas Krebbel <kreb...@linux.ibm.com>


The patch applies cleanly ontop of elfutils_0.181-1.

====
strace right now is not built with unwinding support for IBM Z although both 
variants should work - libdw and libunwind.

Other distros use libdw from elfutils while Ubuntu on x86 appears to use
libunwind. libdw and libunwind do support IBM Z.

It would be good to build strace with unwinding support for Z.
