Probably I was not clear in my question. I running a numerical model

use cray I need to convert the binary file from bigendian to little
end to use it in the pentiumIV . What I would like to know is if this
is necessary to do with the AMD64.

Erm... this might seem like a stupid question, but if you're compiling
amd64-only code, why would the compiled code run on a 32-bit cpu? It's
not going to work any more than SPARC binaries on ARM

AMD64 chips can execute normal i686 code seamlessly - your issue comes
in compiling some. It seems g77 on debian isn't set up to allow
cross-compiling, so you'll need a 32-bit distro or 32-bit chroot on the
AMD64 machine, in order to compile i686-compatible code. the resultant
binary will be fine on amd64 or i686, with appropriate libraries in place
