confirmed on real hardware.

I tried, but unfortunately my i586 machine only has 320MB RAM and I can't 
upgrade it.
It's already swapping heavily to even start the browser. Getting any website 
loaded
before the Stretch release might be difficult.

I totally understand your reasoning and I have next to no knowledge about 
Debian bug
report tags. But from my layman's point of view marking it as 'wontfix' seems a
little "unfortunate". It might be misinterpreted as: "We don't care that our 
package
is broken on half of the architecture (i386)."
Wouldn't 'moreinfo' be more appropriate as in?: "We need more info on how to 
fix it
in a way that works for i586 but doesn't put i686 on a disadvantage."
After all i586 is the minimum requirement all 'i386' packages should work on, 
right?

confirmed.
