BYTE_ORDER for contribs

Is there a quick way to use the BYTE_ORDER define
as set by pgsql ? I can't find an "entry point"
include for it. 

It's needed for postgis (problems with Solaris BYTE_ORDER).

--strk;

BYTE_ORDER isn't actually used anywhere in the backend, and hasn't been
for a long time, so I wouldn't count on it to be right.

My recommendation is to rethink your code.  There's usually a way to
avoid having a compile-time dependency.
