Please don't, yet. Finish the endian part first, and then move to the next. Ideally, we will use autotools, because, we cannot hard-code gcc in the Makefile.

When we do autotools with the sources, you will understand better. Try to focus only on the logic for endian test, and other examples to follow now. I will do the top-level Makefile and directory examples for now, and will give a merge request to you. There is some SSH problem with gitorious, which is preventing me from checking in code. Will do so when it gets fixed and will let you know. Ideally, we can have a -devel mailing list for dgplug, where all project commits can auto-generate e-mail to the list. You continue to top-post in a mailing list. You need to do trimmed, inter-leaved, bottom-posting.
