I've now set up an i686 box too, and I'm definitely seeing the signal
get logged correctly there too. In audit.27 (which is currently
building) I've added a printk as well, so we'll know for sure that the
message is being generated. I suspect you're just seeing that auditd is
dropping the message before it shuts down.

type=KERNEL msg=audit(1114795432.814:0): attempt to signal audit daemon: error=0  signal=15 pid=4068 auid=-1
type=DAEMON msg=auditd(1114795432) auditd normal halt, pid=4059, uid=0
