AFAIK, ia64 and z/Architecture are the only big endian in common use.
And I do not know anyone using those. Also, potentially ARM, but I have
never seen an LE distro for ARM.
Been a LONG time since I powered up a 68000 or PowerPC.
When I did microcode I learned why LE is the preferred choice. It just
codes easier.
