Hi Jeff,

Thanks, this glibc-endianness check is a good idea and we'll incorporate it in a future release.
You probably want to add a "if defined(__BYTE_ORDER)", in case you ever compile this code with a compiler other than GCC.

We currently don't support cross-compiling for Ice, and there is no special cross-compiling support in the Ice build system, or associated documentation. We expect that you build Ice directly on your target.

On the other hand, Ice-E supports both ARM and cross-compiling, and doesn't depend on any third-parties. Is there any feature in Ice and not Ice-E that you need for your application?

Best regards,
Bernard
