In an early part of sha1dc/sha1.c, the code checks the endianness of
the target platform by inspecting common CPP macros defined on
big-endian boxes, and sets BIGENDIAN macro to 1. If these common
CPP macros are not defined, the code declares that the target
platform is little endian and does nothing (most notably, it does
not #undef its BIGENDIAN macro).
The code that does so even has this comment
Note that all MSFT platforms are little endian,
so none of these will be defined under the MSC compiler.
and later, the defined-ness of the BIGENDIAN macro is used to switch
the implementation of sha1_load() macro.
One thing the code did not anticipate is that somebody might define
BIGENDIAN macro in some header it includes to 0 on a little-endian
target platform. Because the auto-detection based on common macros
do not touch BIGENDIAN macro when it detects a little-endian target,
such a definition is still valid and then defined-ness test will say
"Ah, BIGENDIAN is defined" and takes the wrong sha1_load().
As this auto-detection logic pretends as if it owns the BIGENDIAN
macro by ignoring the setting that may come from the outside and by
not explicitly unsetting when it decides that it is working for a
little-endian target, solve this problem without breaking that
assumption. Namely, we can rename BIGENDIAN this code uses to
something much less generic, i.e. SHA1DC_BIGENDIAN. For extra
protection, undef the macro on a little-endian target.
It is possible to work it around by instead #undef BIGENDIAN in
the auto-detection code, but a macro (or include) that happens later
in the code can be implemented in terms of BIGENDIAN on Windows and
it is possible that the implementation gets upset when it sees the
CPP macro undef'ed (instead of set to 0). Renaming the private macro
intended to be used only in this file to a less generic name relieves
us from having to worry about that kind of breakage.
