Hi!

This isn't so obvious at all.  All elements of these constructs are
very much not endian-independent, because of very unfortunate choices
in the meaning of some RTL constructs.  It is possible all things in
this negate all other things, but please show that then.

With BE, if the source vecs are ABCD and EFGH, the vec_concat gives
ABCDEFGH, and the vec_select than gives AEBF.

What happens for LE?
