Not just in Rust, also for C & C++. I guess other languages are safe, since they tend to implement scalar writing with shifts or using explicit endianness aware functions.

Now that #5229 is merged, the Rust crate is now being built/tested with a big-endian target (mips-unknown-linux-gnu) in CI. See this file for more information:

Yes, thanks @tymcauley for getting this to work!
