[distcc] Patch to handle different endian in ELF format

I'm using distcc in a cross-compiler environment where the target output
is an ELF file in big-endian format and the host is little-endian.  The
debug information in the ELF file was not being rewritten because
fix_debug_info.c couldn't handle the case where the target and host
endian-isms did not match.  I've basically just implemented the TODO
about this that was already in the file.  Custom byteswap functions were
written for portability reasons and I didn't want to add something else
to test for in configure.

 

The patch was diff'd from r711 of the trunk.
