It's kind of consistent: Allow it on architectures with fixed endianess, but disallow it on architectures without fixed endianess ;-) Honestly, it should not matter - we're talking here about the "none" machine without a CPU ... as long as it does not crash, there is no need for a working "dump-guest-memory" function here.
