In LaTeX there is a variable-sized symbol called \bigsqcup (see pg45,
Table 3.8 of the LaTeX book).  I need a symbol which is an inverted 
\bigsqcup. It is strange that neither LaTeX nor the AMS fonts have 
such a symbol, as most of the inverses are provided. Does anyone know 
where I can get such a symbol (or how to make it up)?

(\bigsqcap should behave similarly to \bigsqcup when in displaymath mode
and should look something like:
