At one point I thought that having a bytecode for binaries in the browser would be a boon for third party operating systems and their hardware manufacturers. Sadly there is strong resistance to making WebAssembly biendian instead of strictly little-endian.

Since G5 PowerPC systems lack a key little-endian load and store instruction that was previously included in most prior PowerPC processors, will it be much extra work to use Altivec permutations on G5 processors to perform that function? Will this endianness issue hurt us greatly on MorphOS?
