It doesn't hurt for /bin/cc to be compiled for the 8086; it's nothing more
than a dispatcher for the actual compiler (/lib/p[123] and possibly /lib/cpp),
/bin/as, and /bin/ld.  However, all of *those* should be compiled for the
80386 -- and *please*, compile cpp, lex, and yacc with larger table sizes!
