Make it open source, like POSE. We'll do the work for you. ;) It seems like endian-ness could be simulated at a pretty low level so as to not diminish the value of the simulation. However, I suppose an accurate emulator would be good enough, if it were available. Of course, there are some things that are _so_ much easier to do on the simulator... but I'm loath to give any attention to the ugly step-child (my Windows box) that I have stuffed in the corner.
