ARMs have selectable endianness, too, though I

I do not.
One of the things I loved about PowerPC was that the
endianness was
switchable at run-time (though I'm given to understand that never
worked all that well) and there were penalty-free byte-reversed load
and store instructions.
Very nice.
MIPS has selectable endianness as well.
