	Also interesting is that in the top level config.h I see

#undef WORDS_BIGENDIAN

	which is strange since I thought the PPC was big-endian.

	In configure.log I see:

"Result is little-endian"

	What appears to be necessary is explicitly specify the endian-ness
	of the system with "--enable-big-endian".  The 'auto' check for
	endianness doesn't appear to be working correctly on OS/X.

	Then I see:

#define WORDS_BIGENDIAN 1

	At that point compilation succeeds because "config.h" is included
	before "bswap.h"

	Try adding "--enable-big-endian" and see if that works for you also.

	So far audio is working fine (using the build from January 7)

	Cheers,
