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

i386 is little endian. Would expect ia64 to be the same.
ia64 (Itanium) hardware has selectable endianess. I've never worked with
Itanium in any OS, so I can't say whether FreeBSD supports selecting or
is fixed at either little- or bigendian.
