Well, I will say that at least in one place, ipmitool assumes that the system is little-endian. When iit goes to print GUID the GUID will come out looking different whether the host is little or big endian. Of course strictly speaking the IPMI format for DUID is not honored by anyone, but the defacto behavior is the funky representation that DMI calls 'wire format'. Based on the 'de facto' behavior ipmitool only looks right if system is little endian.

Jim, I see no reason why it shouldn't be possible or why there should be any problems. Having said that, I assume you're asking about compiler options/cross-compilation?
