I am trying to compile Python 3.10.0 on a Red Hat linux system with intel C/C++ compilers. This is my configure command:

```
./configure --with-computed-gotos --without-gcc --with-ensurepip=install --enable-optimizations --with-libm=-limf --with-cxx-main=icpc --with-threads --enable-ipv6 --with-signal-module CC=icc CXX=icpc LD=xild AR=xiar LIBS='-lpthread -limf -lirc' CFLAGS='-O3 -fPIC -fp-model strict -fp-model source -axCORE-AVX512,CORE-AVX2 -xAVX -ipo -prec-div -prec-sqrt' LDFLAGS='-ipo' CPP='icc -E'
```

The failure comes as follows:

```
checking for --with-libm=STRING... set LIBM="-limf"
checking for --with-libc=STRING... default LIBC=""
checking for x64 gcc inline assembler... yes
checking whether float word ordering is bigendian... unknown
configure: error:

Unknown float word ordering. You need to manually preset
ax_cv_c_float_words_bigendian=no (or yes) according to your system.
```

I saw issue 38527 was fixed in 3.10. Perhaps fixing it on Solaris broke it on some other platforms?
