>Description:
Building binutils-2.37 on Solaris 10 sparc64 gives me an error when trying to include and use include/plugin-api.h where it fails to detect the endian

With this patch it compiles, and is able to compile GCC8 using gas from binutils instead of the /usr/sfw/bin/gas version.

 The same issue applies to amd64 as well, using the system provided GCC.

 This being a bootstrap issue, new GCC seems to require an up to date
 Binutils to build and run properly.
