I've written a small C program for auto config that checks the
endianness of IEEE doubles. Neil has promised to add something to
configure.in when I come up with a small C program. It *should* do the
right thing on a BE platform but I can't test it.

Tim, does Python run on a non IEEE 754 platform? Should the new repr()
be ripped out? I hate to break Python for scientists just to silence
some ignorants and unexperienced newbies.
