[Bug 292017] emulators/wine-proton: No supported path for i386 packages on 15.x breaks pkg32 compatibility

lib32 also exists but is not a means of setting up and using port-packages
from prior major FreeBSD OS of itself. Also, managing a mix of 15 and 14
port-packages that update at different times without some form of isolation
would have its own issues as far as I can tell. chroot use and jails provide
such isolation. Absent such, the FreeBSD OS has never documented using such
a mix of multiple official port trees as far as I know.

(I make no use of any games, or even of more than console I/O —-nor systematic
use of i386 code. Nor have I ever previously.)

You seem to be after a type of support that has no prior analogous example.
As far as I can tell pkg32.sh has never had any official status for support.
It is part of i386-wine, not of the FreeBSD OS. It is not part of the ports
infrastructure either, never pre-supplied, as I understand. You seem to be
asking for the FreeBSD OS to take over such support responsibilities and start
providing official documentation. That would be a very new activity as far
as I can tell.

There seem to be other non-FreeBSD-official-OS support efforts active as well.
