No. I have tested it on little-endian system only. But I'll
be really surprised if this will fail. Can you please tell me
if I am missing something in this particular case or same
applies for other cases because most of the cases like
__constant_<foo> are already converted to <foo>?

As far as I know, if the argument is a constant the
conversion happens at compile time. And unfolding both
definitions returns to same expression. Still I am trying if
someone can test it for me on big endian system.
