if I remember right, support for a real 80386 was dropped some years
ago. This does not mean that 32 bit support was dropped. 32 bit kernels
only require more modern hardware than a real 80386. I cannot remember
what CPU is the minimum requirement to run a 32 bit kernel.

Did you get confused of this 'news'?
