It looks like you are not alone in encountering these problems.
For this build set up by Li-Wen Hsu:
https://jenkins.freebsd.org/job/FreeBSD_HEAD_i386

he downloads this image
http://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/i386/10.2-RELEASE/base.txz
and then extracts that to create an i386 jail, where the build is performed
on an amd64 host.
