Subject: [PATCH] Don't do runtime test to get float byte order

Python uses AC_RUN_IFELSE to determine the byte order for floats and doubles,
and falls back onto "I don't know" if it can't run code.  This results in
crippled floating point numbers in Python, and the regression tests fail.

Instead of running code, take a macro from autoconf-archive which compiles C
with a special double in which has an ASCII representation, and then greps the
binary to identify the format.

+# SYNOPSIS
+#
+#   AX_C_FLOAT_WORDS_BIGENDIAN([ACTION-IF-TRUE], [ACTION-IF-FALSE], [ACTION-IF-UNKNOWN])
+#
+# DESCRIPTION
+#
+#   Checks the ordering of words within a multi-word float. This check is
+#   necessary because on some systems (e.g. certain ARM systems), the float
+#   word ordering can be different from the byte ordering. In a multi-word
+#   float context, "big-endian" implies that the word containing the sign
+#   bit is found in the memory location with the lowest address. This
+#   implementation was inspired by the AC_C_BIGENDIAN macro in autoconf.
+#
+#   The endianness is detected by first compiling C code that contains a
+#   special double float value, then grepping the resulting object file for
+#   certain strings of ASCII values. The double is specially crafted to have
+#   a binary representation that corresponds with a simple string. In this
+#   implementation, the string "noonsees" was selected because the
+#   individual word values ("noon" and "sees") are palindromes, thus making
+#   this test byte-order agnostic. If grep finds the string "noonsees" in
+#   the object file, the target platform stores float words in big-endian
+#   order. If grep finds "seesnoon", float words are in little-endian order.
+#   If neither value is found, the user is instructed to specify the
+#   ordering.
