Previous DJGPP distrbutions were done on DJ's indy, a big-endian
machine.  I think we want to preserve the possibility to cross-build
on big-endian machines, in case some day that would be necessary
again.

Whether this is a sufficient reason to ask DJ to put indy on line
depends on how much effort that would take ;-)
