Our toolchain maintainers are happy to support amd64 as-is.
Considering the fact that most DDs still upload packages built on i386 and that pergolesi (the amd64 porterbox) offers 32bit chroots we waive the porterbox requirement for i386.
Our toolchain maintainers are happy to support i386 as-is.
Kernel has obviously a large community which supports it. gcc has upstream support, the kfreebsd-specific part is only a few hundred lines long. glibc is done by us (mostly Petr Salinger).
According to the gcc maintainer 32bit code generation as we use it is no longer supported upstream and we should aim for a switch to 64bit userland anytime soon.
