One thing we need to be careful about is arch conditionals. I'm sure
there are some packages which conditionalize around things like "%ifarch
i386" or "ExclusiveArch: i386". These will all need to be adjusted in
order for a mass rebuild to be successful.

Luckily, there is a macro for "all 32bit x86 arches", %{ix86}.

Be sure you're using %{ix86} instead of i386.
