I need to take a closer look at this, but I do note that
lib/portability.h has an apple #ifdef in there already (and in theory
should be able to handle big/little endian stuff in that context,
although now they've deprecated powerpc I think everything they're doing
is little endian. Still, lots of network stuff is big endian so they'll
need the byteswaps anyway.)
Any target-specific complexity we can hide in lib/portability.h (such as
what function implements fdprintf) is probably worth doing. Similarly,
adding an "is this macosx" probe to scripts/genconfig.sh and outputting
Config.probed glue appropriately would also be worth doing.

I wrote about 80% of the busybox version of sed, and the next _big_
command I'm trying to tackle over here is a toybox version of sed.
What I'd like to be able to do is get toybox to detect that the host sed
isn't usable (similar to the unshare probe) and if so build its' own and
use that. ("generated/sed" works for me. :)
I'd like to make building on macosx be transparent, so it just works
instead of having to specify things. Unfortunately, I don't have a test
environment for it...
I'll try to do a more detailed review of your macosx patches this evening.
Thanks,
Rob
