They are FSFS; however, if endianness is *ever* an issue, then it'll
*always* be an issue, surely?
If it's currently a big-endian SPARC, and I merely copy the repo. dirs.
onto a little-endian x86, if endianness is a problem then that won't work.
All I have is:
$ uname -a
SunOS hostname 5.10 Generic_139555-08 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-V240
.. and that doesn't really help me!
