I have a copy of the APL\11 that came with 4.2BSD and it flatly doesn't
run on big-endian machines.  I fixed enough places to get it to add 2 and 2
but never got to making variables work.  There are just too many byte-order
dependencies.  

I haven't figured out the character set either.

If you have something that halfway works I'd be interested in trading
versions...
