I believe all that needs to be done is to add an ||defined(__amd64__)
where the similar __i386__ test is done in the
/usr/include/boost/detail/endian.hpp .

My only caveat is that gnash, while it built with this change, appears
to segfault on every flash file I try it on so while I believe the
proper endianness was selected the application is stillborn. My guess is
there is some more subtle issue somewhere else.
