Ping?

This is OK, except lose the APPLE LOCAL markers.
How can this be OK when people raise issues with the patch?
"OK" does not mean that we have perfect consensus and everyone agrees.
It means that on balance it is better to have this patch than not.
I think it's inappropriate for you to overrule Ian without trying to
build consensus, given that this is a change to the IA32 back end. You
have GWP, and Ian does not, so it is true that you can change i386.h
without approval, and that Ian cannot; in that sense, you outrank Ian.
But, I think Ian's comment:
Perhaps an intermediate approach would be to introduce a new macro, like X86_SUPPORT_LOCAL, and then define that if CROSS_COMPILE is not defined and __i386__ is defined, with a clear comment.
suggests a path forward which is no harder than the one posted, but considerably clearer, as well as avoiding code duplication.
