I don't, but acked-by.  It can't hurt any other arches.

I'd like to burn most of compiler.h and servermd.h to the ground, all
the endian crap in there could be done portably by now without needing
to care about specific architectures and then we could avoid this entire
class of patch in the future.  Possibly too late for that for 1.16?  I
think I have at least the servermd.h bit already written in a branch
somewhere though.
