+# TestBigEndian
+# -------------
+#
+# The TestBigEndian.cmake module that ships with CMake, which
+# checks if the system is big endian or little endian, assumes
+# that a binary is produced that will have bytes that correspond to the
+# endianness on the target system. Since emscripten produces Javascript, we
+# override the default behavior and always return little endian.
