Hehe, yes, I know, it's pretty uncommon. The hardware platform I'm
using was not running Linux... until now. And the big endian choice is
made at the HW level, so it's not trivial to change it to little endian.

It's a custom platform using the SH7786 SoC. Sadly, this is clearly not
a HW platform that I can provide to help Debian having more build
resources.

I thought about this, but I'm not sure the SH maintainers are actively
looking at the kernel bug tracker.

Let's see if Rich and/or Yoshinori have some feedback about my issue.

Best regards,
