I didn't mean to drop any detection of this new feature. I just didn't
want a new dependency on tools' feature probing framework. See
IS_LITTLE_ENDIAN and get_sys_includes, we already have various feature
detection-like stuff in there. So we can do this with a one-liner. I
just want to keep it simple. Thanks.
