Different i860. I think he may be referring to one of these, eg., http://www.tyan.com/products/html/thunderi860.html.
I've booted a recent Linux kernel on this board and, aside from the unbalanced interrupts previously mentioned, it seemed ok. Then again, I didn't do any load stressing that might reveal potential failures.
