I suggest that change in the file Amaya/thotlib/base/fileaccess.c:
  #if     __BYTE_ORDER == __BIG_ENDIAN
    unsigned int negative:1;
    unsigned int exponent:8;
    unsigned int mantissa:23;
- #endif
- #if     __BYTE_ORDER == __LITTLE_ENDIAN
+ #else
    unsigned int mantissa:23;
    unsigned int exponent:8;
    unsigned int negative:1;
  #endif

  #if defined(_BIG_ENDIAN)
    unsigned int negative:1;
    unsigned int exponent:8;
    unsigned int mantissa:23;
- #endif
- #if defined(_LITTLE_ENDIAN)
+ #else
    unsigned int mantissa:23;
    unsigned int exponent:8;
    unsigned int negative:1;
  #endif
