I'm trying to create a port of an application which only works on

I'm sure it has been answered

in tinderbox it didn't work, so I
can't really do that.
I didn't mean to imply that you need to check, just that it's likely to
not work (regardless of endianness) and you should be aware of that.
powerpc and sparc aren't tier-1 architectures anyway, so ordinary
users are unlikely to run into them

FreeBSD endianness depends on the hardware architecture it runs on (as
endianness is a hardware characterization). (Very) generally, anything that's
related to an Intel CPU is little-endian

It depends on the hardware.

Not true. Alpha is big- or little-endian (so, it's bi-endian), depending on
how it's booted, and IIRC the Windows NT version running on Alpha used the
big-endian mode of the CPU. But I might be mistaken.
i had SRM console used netbsd too later, too little endian.
the Windows NT days, which ran on Alpha workstations which were big-endian.
Alpha is little endian. i had alpha 21066 running linux.

Endianness depends on the hardware.
In internal kernel structures endianness does not matter, if
communicating with other machines protocols (usually) define a
bitorder.
The c-library and/or systemlibrary contains utility functions for conversion.

Not true. Alpha is big- or little-endian (so, it's bi-endian),
Alpha is little-endian in practice. I've never heard of DEC--or
anybody else for that matter--building a big-endian alpha.

If I recall correctly some of the MIPS chips
I was just wondering if anyone was working on support for NeXT/Apple UFS
file systems under FreeBSD.
