ffs is POSIX not c99 as far as I can tell, and before that 4.2BSD as a
thin wrapper around the vax ffs instruction.

According to http://linux.die.net/man/3/ffsll
"The ffsl() and ffsll() functions are glibc extensions"

Add a bswap32 to src/mesa/main/imports.* as _mesa_bswap32 you mean?

src/gallium/auxiliary/util/u_math.h has a util_bswap32 but non gallium
drivers shouldn't be using those definitions?
