OpenBSD's ncr.c supports big-endian CPU.
OpenBSD/powerpc has configuration for ncr.

Yes. And, it is a problem to work in different endian with CPU(big)
and 53C810(little).

CPU puts SCRIPT on the main memory for 53C810. 53C810 runs SCRIPT
in the main memory. Therefore, SCRIPT must be little-endian.
And, address must be changed in SCRIPT, because memory map of PCI master
is different from memory map of CPU.

I am sorry that I can't explain well.
