Hi Rich, That looks fine. Two suggestions and a question: If you add those on a separate line, not only will these related checks be all by themselves (less risk of eventual conflict, however small), you'll also avoid going over the 80-col line-length limit ;-) AC_CHECK_FUNCS([ntohl htonl ntohs htons]) ...

A different name file name might be nice, so this file is not confused (by people) with the system-provided <byteswap.h>. Maybe byteswap-pxdr.h or something similar. ...

Where is BYTE_ORDER defined? normally in endian.h. More curiosity than anything, since I'm sure it works everywhere you built it. I sort of expected to see an "#include <endian.h>" somewhere.
