Ick, no.

It won't do that anyway if !ARCH_USE_BUILTIN_BSWAP. I don't see the
point in adding a new config option just for this.

If you want to define __HAVE_BUILTIN_BSWAPxx__ for yourself manually,
just go ahead and do so. As I said, if lots of architectures end up
doing it then we'll worry about cleaning things up when we've got a
better picture of who needs what.
