But at least for Kconfigs X86-32 is the name that is much more common:

 triton:~/tip> make ARCH=i386 allmodconfig
 triton:~/tip> grep _386 .config
 triton:~/tip> grep _X86_32 .config
 CONFIG_X86_32=y
 CONFIG_X86_32_SMP=y
 CONFIG_X86_32_LAZY_GS=y
 CONFIG_X86_32_NON_STANDARD=y
 CONFIG_X86_32_IRIS=m

So I'd go with that.

Also, since we have 'x86-64', not Not sure I'd consider 'x86-32' clumsy.

Thanks,
