 This seems to be somewhat undesirable. Does *anyone* care about real
 i386 support at this point? NetBSD certainly doesn't and I think we are
 already the odd man for a number of cases like this.

Since I'm testing on FreeBSD 11.x, and that will take quite a while to get any 
new changes, I'd say it's safer to revert for now, at least on the branch.  At 
least then I can build and test the RCs on i386-freebsd. :)

According to the release schedule we should tag RC2 today. Do you
think there's any chance of getting this figured out by today?

Thanks,

Since it's been doing this for a number of years now, I don't think it would be 
bad at all, at least not for FreeBSD.  At least, a lot more effort is needed to 
supply properly working atomic libcalls for 64 bit values on i386.  (They can't 
be implemented without at least a bit of kernel assistance.)
