It looks like on big-endian architectures BFS can be mounted read-only only (cf. bfs_endian.h and Volume.cpp).

As of 18 Nov 2012 it still doesn't work.

It can now be built, but that does not change the fact that Volume.cpp still prevents from writing to the volume.

This ticket asks to be able to write to big endian BFS; its title is a bit misleading.

Basically, it just needs testing, and probably some minor fixes.

Well last time I tried it crashed at some point.
