I was referring to running the x86 arch on hardware

There are current products with pre-686 instruction sets.
Companies such as DM&P still produce 586-class SoCs for embedded and
industrial. These[1][2] are

Hi guys,
For some time now, we've been shipping broken i486 stage3s that do not
run on pre-i686 hardware [1]. Due to a change in catalyst [2], we no
longer set CXXFLAGS in the default make.conf, so the x86 profiles' (imho
wrong/broken) defaults [3] kick in.
