BUG: ophcrack makes "port clean all" fail on PPC

[arsptr@…]

Summary prettymuch says it all:

macports $ sudo port clean all
--->  Cleaning 2Pong
...
--->  Cleaning openvpn2
Error: ophcrack only runs on little-endian machines.

Of course this is on PPC.

I have openvpn2 installed on a PPC G4 and there is no problem for cleaning openvpn2.

mac:/Users/apn root# port clean all
...
--->  Removing workpath for openvanilla
--->  Cleaning openvpn
--->  Removing workpath for openvpn
--->  Cleaning openvpn2
--->  Removing workpath for openvpn2
--->  Cleaning ophcrack
--->  Removing workpath for ophcrack
--->  Cleaning optipng
...

The system is up to date and the port tree has just been synced

The little endian test is causing the port to exit. Since we only support Macs now and little endian means PPC, a platform statement (platform ppc) could be used instead to perform the exit and that should fix it.

Change summary.

This was fixed by moving the test for endianness into a pre-fetch phase.
