Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge libpciaccess
Actual Results:  
common_interface.c:72:24: error: sys/endian.h: No such file or directory
...
 * ERROR: x11-libs/libpciaccess-0.12.1 failed (compile phase):
 *   emake failed

Expected Results:  
Successful compilation

[Comment 3 Matt Turner 2015-09-05 07:07:43 UTC]

libpciaccess is for the DDX, which isn't intended to work on OS X.
