I think an FS will be newfs'd big or little at newfs time.

Potentially one _could_ do a conversion without too much hassle, if one
was willing to halve the number of available i-nodes on the disc (I
presume the on-disc layout is still the same). This would mean that it
would be possible to move to large i-nodes without having to relocate
any FS data (which is basically a no go). You'd still need to reassign
i-node numbers within directories. Just the daily mad thought.
