Applied, thanks! I just needed a minor change in 1/10: socat doesn't
appear to be available on Ubuntu 16.04 ppc64 -- which is not even an
officially supported architecture for that version, but it looked like
the most convenient way to add a big-endian PPC to the mix.

So, well, I added a special case for it, still using netcat-openbsd.
