Yes, i386 generates substantially smaller images than amd64.

In an environment where you are constrained to the existing available
virtualization capacity and are tasked with making the most of that,
there is no obvious reason why you would build infrastructure devices 
such as a DHCP server using amd64.

We also have a supply of embedded Soekris systems which only run the
i386.

Probably not.  LibreSSL is intended to be portable, and the LibreSSL 
web site points back to the OpenBSD mailing lists:

https://www.libressl.org/mail.html

"See https://www.openbsd.org/mail.html for more details on posting or
subscribing."

So now over at https://www.openbsd.org/mail.html ...

I would think [email protected] would seem the obvious choice of
list.  However, it is listed under

"Developer lists
These lists are for technical discussions of aspects of OpenBSD. They are
NOT for beginners or average users, they are not for problem reporting
(unless you are including a good fix) and they are not for installation
problems. If you have any question about if a message should be posted to
any of these lists, it probably should not. Use misc instead."

So according to the guidelines on the website, my issue didn't fit
[email protected], and there is an instruction to use misc instead.

Besides, it came up as a reply to a message posted on misc.
