Anything can be justified on those grounds (and sometimes is, not just by NetBSD), but using it to *add* legacy is extremely sketchy. In particular I think some change *should* be in the generic toolchain. My tests indicate that GCC's behaviour is to pass --be8 by default for v7 (& v6m), not for v5, and to require -Wl,--be in the middle. I maintain this patch should not have been committed, at least without more thought and discussion.
