[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/1] configure: robustify big/little check

[Cornelia Huck]

The check for big or little endianness relies on grep reporting
match/non-match on the generated binary. If the user specified
--binary-files=without-match in their GREP_OPTIONS, this will fail.
Let's just explicitly specify --binary-files=binary, which will
override any user settings and do what we want.
