Great, this archive works even on big endian.

I just spotted few issues you should know about:

(1) _() is defined multiple times:
gcc -DLOCALEDIR=\"/usr/share/locale\" -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I..  -I../libopts -I. -I.. -I../lib -I../intl  -Wno-format-contains-nul -O2 -g -pipe -Wall -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fexceptions -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4  -m31 -march=z9-109 -mtune=z10 -Wno-format-contains-nul -c uudecode-opts.c
uudecode.c:62:0: warning: "_" redefined [enabled by default]
In file included from uudecode.c:56:0:
uudecode-opts.h:178:0: note: this is the location of the previous definition

(2) uuencode.5 uses undefined macro `.'. That's because leading comment
with license starts with bad empty request:

'.\" Copyright

The apostrophe should be there:

.\" Copyright
