big-endian sandbox issue

Hi!
I have tried to build barebox on big-endian MIPS CPU running Debian 8.
It fails because of unconditional <linux/byteorder/little_endian.h> inclusion.
At the first glance this can help:
--- a/arch/sandbox/include/asm/byteorder.h
+++ b/arch/sandbox/include/asm/byteorder.h
@@ -3,6 +3,12 @@
#include <asm/types.h>
+#if __BYTE_ORDER__ == __ORDER_BIG_ENDIAN__
+#include <linux/byteorder/big_endian.h>
+#elif __BYTE_ORDER__ == __ORDER_LITTLE_ENDIAN__
#include <linux/byteorder/little_endian.h>
+#else
+#error "__BYTE_ORDER__ != __ORDER_BIG_ENDIAN__ and __BYTE_ORDER__ !=
__ORDER_LITTLE_ENDIAN__"
+#endif
#endif /* _I386_BYTEORDER_H */
But some warning appears:
In file included from common/filetype.c:21:0:
/barebox.git/arch/sandbox/include/asm/unaligned.h:11:21: warning:
"__LITTLE_ENDIAN" is not defined [-Wundef]
#if __BYTE_ORDER == __LITTLE_ENDIAN
System-wide <endian.h> can fix the situation, but we use -nostdinc, so
the error occurs:
barebox.git/arch/sandbox/include/asm/byteorder.h:7:20: fatal error:
endian.h: No such file or directory
#include <endian.h>
^
compilation terminated.
Moreover AFAIR <endian.h> isn't available on BSD, so '#if
defined(__linux__)' has to be used.
Any suggestions?
