Device passthrough in a VM? Could set endianess of whatever you want depending on what you load.
I thought of that just a short while ago... two problems I can see so far: 1) speed - I'd have to use QEMU (*not* QEMU-KVM) to emulate the CPU in software, so performance would be horrible. 2) the only distros that even have a snowball's chance of booting in QEMU appear to be Ubuntu-PPC and some mythical Linux-MIPS distro that I can't find. And both of those appear to be highly problematic, since QEMU isn't exactly mainstream!
If you know of refutations of either of those, I'd love to hear about it!
