i586-make obj   was done first and it created a bunch if obj.i386 directories

The compile host runs NetBSD 1.5 which was compiled from source for i586,
my attempt was to compile NetBSD 1.5.2 source to have an i586 optimized
binary NetBSD 1.5.2 distribution just like I previously done for this 1.5
system... which is why my i586-make script was very simple and used the
compile host's default gcc and binutils...

Among all the systems I use NetBSD with, there only is a single one which
required i386 binaries, others are more suited with i586 and i686 binaries,
do you think that eventually i586 would have an official distribution? Of
course compiling it myself wouldn't be too much problems usually, except
this time where I just stumble on that error

Thank you,
