4323	Detect endianess on iPhoneOS	fgp@…		"The detail/endian.hpp detection logic fails on iPhoneOS currently (as of boost 1.43). The following block fixes that. If've added this right after the GLIBC specific checks, but if one wants to be absolutely sure that no currently working case is broken by this, it might make sense to add it at the end.

All apple-supplied compilers on my Mac OS 10.6 installation (gcc 4.0, gcc-4.2, llvm-gcc, clang) set those defines, though, as doe the corresponding iPhoneOS versions of these compilers. The risk of adding this right after the GLIBc block seems pretty small therefore.
