Hybrid 7 works on *many* big endian systems and as far as I know a
number of 64-bit ones, too.  Relevant people to talk to would be (from
README.PLATFORMS):

SPARC        Forte C v6,v7    Solaris       Joan Touzet <joant at ieee.org>
SPARC        gcc              Solaris       Joan Touzet <joant at ieee.org>
SPARC        gcc              Linux         Aaron Sethman <androsyn at ratbox.org>
Alpha        DEC C V6.0*      OpenVMS 7.2   Edward Brocklesby
                                                <ejb at sdf.lonestar.org>
Alpha        cc               Tru64 5.2b    Joshua Kwan <joshk at triplehelix.org>
PA-RISC 2.0  cc               HP-UX B.11    Yusuf Iskenderoglu
                                                <uhc0 at stud.uni-karlsruhe.de>

With Joan and AndroSyn being the most likely useful people to figure
such out with.  Or contact the port maintainer.  Or maybe there's a
bug somewhere else.

Thanx,
juli.
