So rather than doing the revert, it's probably better if  your
workaround just does

   make ARCH=i386 oldconfig

(or maybe even just a "export ARCH=i386" in the environment)

That should get you to continue to otherwise do the same thing.

And if it turns out that your flow is the *only* one affected by this,
and nobody else complains, maybe we can just say "yeah, slight change
in build rules, easy to work around" and leave it at that.
