53 Obtains information about the system.
55 The system's word size in bits (typically 32) is returned in \a
56 *wordSize. The \a *bigEndian is set to TRUE if this is a big-endian
57 machine, or to FALSE if this is a little-endian machine.
59 In debug mode, this function calls qFatal() with a message if the
60 computer is truly weird (i.e. different endianness for 16 bit and
61 32 bit integers); in release mode it returns FALSE.
