We fixed those endian problems in zBoot and tools/build.  We now have
a working cross-compile for the Linux kernel that should work on
any big- or little-endian machine with the appropriate tools (a cross-
compiler/assembler, etc).  The patches to the Makefiles and the zBoot
and tools stuff have been sent to Linus.  The 1.1.64 kernel I'm using right
now was compiled on a Solaris 2.3 machine.
