 Description   

Trying to build RocksDB on other little endian architectures I noticed this part in the CMake file..

Yes, a quite a sad tale of the submodule getting behind that would fix numerous things.

An attempt was made recently to test an update but many new issues where introduced. I'm hoping those were roughly documented somewhere.

My desire is to try and push as much as I can back upstream, but in this case it seems like we're stuck. I'll have these commits in our tree as patches for the time being.
