----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
 The byte-swapping code in dfu-util depends on some nonportable system
 headers. Rather than extend autoconf to check more and more systems'
 headers, I just wrote a portable byteswap routine. (Since the routine is
 only called once per run of dfu-util, it hardly needs an optimized
 assembly implementation.) A patch is attached. I can upload and download
 updates fine from my (big-endian ppc) host.
