Ah, that's why my reply got bounced.  Here it is again:

Should we just remove the section that's for netbsd-i386?  That would 
force needing linux-i386 for using rar, but as it's a much newer version 
by several generations, it's likely to be much better.  I don't know 
anyone who still uses the very old BSD rar binary.
