Yup. And it looks like it's still that way. Oddly, a comment
at the top of the file says that cross-endian support has been
added, but it sure looks like "-l" and "-b" are just ignored.
I tried undefining JFFS2_NATIVE_ENDIAN and defining
JFFS2_BIG_ENDIAN, but then nothing builds. (RH7.3 IA32 host)
Where can I get a version of mkfs.jffs2 that pays attention to
the "-b" flag? [I unfortunately can't access the CVS archives.]
Thanks,
