Hello,

there was some lobbying against the deprecation of the i386 support of
GCC:

Is this really justified?  Why does the RTEMS project need the i386?  We
should not make the life of GCC developers harder than necessary.

It's a lost fight - The i386 is dead in GCC for a long time and was broken
for even longer, it's just that nonbody around here noticed.

The fact no one noticed is perhaps a deeper problem for us than the
issue of i386 support.

Well, my interpretation: These days, nobody uses an i386.

The original thread (http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2012-12/msg00079.html) indicates the same.
