Re: Is detecting endianness at compile-time unworkable?

For AIX: again - the determination is simple. If _AIX is set to 1 then
use BigEndian, or, use:
michael@x071:[/home/michael]uname
AIX
i.e., something like:
$(uname) == "AIX" && BigEndian=1

In lieu of some "let's test this with a compile-test" solution, that
seems like a viable way forward for now. Can you please test the merge
request I have at
https://github.com/cr-marcstevens/sha1collisiondetection/pull/45 by
manually applying that change to the relevant file in sha1dc/ and
building/testing git on AIX?

It should work, but as noted in the MR please test it so we can make
sure, and then (if you have a GitHub account) comment on the MR saying
it works for you.
