Yon can instruct the cross compiler sh4-linux-gcc to produce executables 
with big-endianess
by passing an SH4 specific option (-mb) (for more details see: 
http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.2.1/gcc/SH-Options.html#SH-Options).

To build the whole uClibc with BE format, you can play with menuconfig 
an set it:
Here it is the configuration path:
Target Architecture Features and Options
   |------> Target Processor Endianess
                            |-----------> Big-Endian

No, I use a LE format
