-* Deal with the configure tests that prevent cross-compilation:
- - Remove use of schar (in dvicopy, mf, pktogf, and tangle).
- - Learn endianness at runtime, include both Big and LittleEndian

* Make web2c handle fields correctly, i.e., to put the field identifier
in the symbol table of the type, instead of the global symbol table.
