Description
Several components in SFW fail to build on an i386 system
(or an amd64 system running a 32-bit kernel).  There is no
good reason that a 64-bit-capable toolchain, which we have,
can't be used to produce the necessary binaries even on a
32-bit build machine.  Note that this will likely require
autotools surgery since they tend to assume that the build
and host ISAs are identical.
