There is actually a reasonably-legitimate reason to want such a kernel,
perhaps even an i386 version, which is the ability to boot thin clients
with LTSP. It can, of course boot a different kernel than the server
runs, but it needs to be something maintainable (i.e. already being
maintained...) and kept in sync with the rest of the system.
