Arg, you uncovered a bug. At some point, the list of failures for i386
and amd64 were exchanged. The amd64 build succeeded, but not the i386
one.

The i386 is failing with:
  HOSTLD  scripts/kconfig/conf
scripts/kconfig/conf -s arch/x86/Kconfig

*** Error during update of the kernel configuration.

make[6]: *** [silentoldconfig] Error 1
make[5]: *** [silentoldconfig] Error 2

Yes, that might be because of a previous build on the same node, or a
concurrent build. But this should not affect the current build.
