--- Comment #2 from Yuri Pankov <yuripv@FreeBSD.org> ---
Looking at this, I wonder if powerpc ISOs (at least, 12-ALPHA10 snapshot)
cross-compiled on amd64 as the locale data files are matching the ones on my
amd64 system.

In any case, it looks like the check in lib/libc/locale/endian.h needs to
include __powerpc__ as well, or just check for big endian.  I've cross-comp=
iled
libc with the following change on amd64, and was able to run simple test
program just doing setlocale(), and even run tmux preloading the resulting
libc.so.7:

diff --git a/lib/libc/locale/endian.h b/lib/libc/locale/endian.h
index d3b822788688..ade03bdc8997 100644
--- a/lib/libc/locale/endian.h
+++ b/lib/libc/locale/endian.h

  * correct macros here.

-#if BYTE_ORDER =3D=3D BIG_ENDIAN && defined(__mips__)
+#if BYTE_ORDER =3D=3D BIG_ENDIAN
 #define        BSWAP(x)        le32toh(x)
 #else
 #define        BSWAP(x)        x

I'm NOT sure if this is correct for all cases, and if it will not break nat=
ive
powerpc builds, need to investigate a bit more.
