Changing just the DEFAULTTUNE does not affect the kernel configuration (only
userspace compilation).  You will need to configure the kernel for the proper
big-endian target to resolve these types of items.  I've not done this on ARM
before, but most likely you'll need to define a new machine file, and associated
configuration fragment(s).
