CoreFoundation isn't implemented in GNUstep, since it's function on a Mac is
only to provide a way to pass objects between Cocoa and Carbon.  As such, they
aren't portable to GNUstep.  Take a look at the NSByteOrder.h header in the
Foundation framework (either on Cocoa or on GNUstep) this should yield some
portable functions which do exactly what you need and are available on both
systems.
