It's interesting that Dom and Luke deduce from the colours displayed  
in their builds that there might be endian issues when they're  
building on an Intel... As far as Camelot is concerned, and assuming  
WORDS_BIGENDIAN is correctly defined (i.e. undefined), that should be  
the more reliable case by far!

As Alex points out, when I had Camelot building under wxMac 2.6.2 on  
my PowerPC Mac I had a few colour problems but I could load BlueCar  
and my page was white.

One possibility springs to mind:
Maybe there is code in wxWidgets which does conditional endian stuff  
based on __WXMAC__ rather than WORDS_BIGENDIAN...??? It would not  
have shown up as a problem until very recently...
