o Remove some GCCisms in src/powerpc/include/endian.h.
o Unify <machine/endian.h>'s across all architectures. o Make bswapXX() functions use a different spelling of u_int16_t and friends to reduce namespace pollution. The bswapXX() functions don't actually exist, but we'll probably import these at some point. Atleast one driver (if_de) depends on bswapXX() for big endian cases. o Deprecate byteorder(3) prototypes from <sys/types.h>, these are now prototyped indirectly in <arpa/inet.h>. o Deprecate in_addr_t and in_port_t typedefs in <sys/types.h>, these are now typedef'd in <arpa/inet.h>. o Change byteorder(3) prototypes to use standards compliant uint32_t (spelled __uint32_t to reduce namespace pollution). o Document new preferred headers and standards compliance.
