However, unless you are a super-programmer, it's very easy to introduce subtle bugs. Software I write has hit this occasionally, someone somewhere does something like cast an int to bytes to do some bit-twiddling. Checking your whole codebase for this is incredibly hard. My modern choice is just to make clear to BE users I don't support them, and while I will accept patches I'll make no attempt to bugfix for them, because every time I try to get a BE VM running a modern linux it takes a whole afternoon.
