 Duh.  I think the problem is that I neglected to 'make cleandir' or nuke
 $OBJDIR and just did an update build.  I downloaded the latest snapshot
 (NetBSD 7.99.29 (GENERIC.201605281150Z)) and it has no trouble with
 'init'.
 
 Perhaps a note should be added to UPDATING for i386 when the switch was
 flipped as was done for amd64.  (Possibly for arm too, but its switch to
 GCC 5.3 at the same time makes that something of a given.)
 
 This seems also to be at the root of '/usr/libexec/cc1{,plus}' failures
 due to inability to write-enable the text segment I was seeing.  Possibly
 also related to a couple of package build failures.
 
 I'll rebuild properly and try again, but the above is likely the case.
