No.  It is a bug in <machine/endian.h>, although strictly, all the
above applications are broken because <sys/types.h> is a documented
prerequisite of <sys/wait.h> (if they include the undocumented header
<machine/endian.h> then they are even more broken).  <sys/wait.h> just
happened to not actually have this prerequisite.
