Python test failure on Mac

Hello All,

I'm in the process of porting Mapserver and some of it's supporting
libraries to Mac OS X.  The results of which will be released as part
of the DarwinPort project for others to download and build.

I've bumped into a byte order error on the MapCloningTestCase.  I
haven't seen anything on google or the archives so I thought I'd ask
the list before I get ugly with this.  I know others have used
MapServer on a Mac, has anyone else seen this before?

% python runalltests.py -v
check attributes of a cloned class ... ok
testConstructorNoArg (classtest.ClassObjTestCase) ... ok
testConstructorWithArg (classtest.ClassObjTestCase) ... ok
MapCloningTestCase.testClonedLayers: the layers of a cloned map equal the original ... ERROR 1: CPLVerifyConfiguration(): byte order set wrong.

Note that I'm running Tiger, and used the default gcc 4.0.

% uname -a
Darwin Thebes.local 8.0.0 Darwin Kernel Version 8.0.0: Sat Mar 26 14:15:22 PST 2005; root:xnu-792.obj~1/RELEASE_PPC Power Macintosh powerpc

% gcc --version
powerpc-apple-darwin8-gcc-4.0.0 (GCC) 4.0.0 20041026 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 4061)

Thanks for your time,
  Dave
