Note that I use multiple WITHOUT_XXX knobs documented in src.conf(5) to decrease both
build time and size of resulting image, maybe some excluded code really has problems for i386, can't tell.

Not sure what you meant here. ARCH may be i386 (32 bit) or amd64 (64 bit),
however i586 is not a name for ARCH but for CPUTYPE only (not same thing).
