Not one I see, not without looking at bfd private data
abfd->xvec->byteorder or introducing a multi-valued accessor for
the bfd endian data or expressing it awkwardly along the lines of:
 switch (2 * (bfd_little_endian (STATE_PROG_BFD (sd) != false))
         + (bfd_big_endian (STATE_PROG_BFD (sd) != false)))
   ...

Since you made it optional I committed as-is; I didn't see an
obvious and simple way to better express it as a switch.
