[OpenIndiana-discuss] TiMidity++ "byte order miss configured"

Greetings everyone,

After updating to the latest version of OpenIndiana Hipster last month, 
TiMidity++ has been giving me an error message when trying to render 
MIDI files. It will say "Byte order is miss configured." anytime I try 
to play or export a known-good MIDI file that worked before the 2025.04 
snapshot.

I have an entire library of 200+ MIDI files that rendered just fine in 
previous versions of OI. Now, those same files throw the byte order 
error when trying to play them.

I tried running a system update (pfexec pkg update) but the issue 
persists. Any ideas on a solution? Frustrating since one of the key 
functions of my OpenIndiana machine is to render MIDI files in 
TiMidity++. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
