Following the update, I can indeed build firefox for i386.  It's not a
clean process, though.  After "make patch", I apply Izumi Tsutsui's hack
manually.  Then, building with MAKE_JOBS > 1 runs for a while then fails
repeatedly.  Restarting with MAKE_JOBS=1 allows the build to complete.

I'll have to arrange another machine to test as DRMKMS and PAE are
mutually exclusive (kernel panic if DRMKMS drivers are enabled in a
PAE-enabled kernel).
