Summary: Fix cross compile.

Initial Comment:
Here is a patch to fix cross compiling of
expat. The problem is the AC_C_BIGENDIAN
macro. Instead of using AC_C_BIGENDIAN,
the AC_C_BIGENDIAN_CROSS macro from the
autoconf archive should be used. I am
going to attach the macro file here. Note
that you can also obtain this same file
from:

http://cryp.to/autoconf-archive/Cross_Compilation/ac_c_bigendian_cross.html

Also, I am not claiming this is the perfect
way to add .m4 files to aclocal.m4. I tried
to make it work like your existing buildconf.sh.
Note that the macro file should live in:

conftools/ac_c_bigendian_cross.m4

I just tested it out and it seems to be working
just fine.

Thanks

Checked in as buildconf.sh revision 1.2 and configure.in revision 1.16.  I'm not able to test in a cross-compilation environment, but this doesn't break my x86 build.
