I had posted a message last week about problems with the color display on a
Solaris system. At least two people responded with confirmations of the
problem and suggesting that it might be a big-endian/little-endian
problem. This was a correct analysis of the problem but the code was
designed to deal with those differences. The problem is with the compiler.
To fix the problem, replace the fancy
#if (defined(__BYTE_ORDER) && defined(__LITTLE_ENDIAN) && (__BYTE_ORDER == __LITTLE_ENDIAN)) || defined(_LITTLE_ENDIAN) || (BYTE_ORDER == LITTLE_ENDIAN)
at appx line #911 with the simpler
#if 0
Apparently, the compiler being used does not support the __BYTE_ORDER and/or
__LITTLE_ENDIAN defined constants. If you know you are on a big-endian
machine, simply force the compiler to read the appropriate code and you'll be
fine.
Please let me know if this works for you.
