Ok, got it. I guess the old armeb ports was never in Debian, and predated
the debian-ports system.
Debian ports indeed still contain packages for big-endian m68k (obviously)
as well as hppa, powerpc, ppc64 (in addition to the official ppc64le) and
sparc64). I'm surprised nobody so far tried restarting the openrisc port,
which got dropped when it appeared the corresponding gcc port would not
be upstreamed.
