Well, some people will argue that:

make ARCH=i386 whateverconfig

is less typing than:

make CONFIG_64BIT=y whateverconfig # set bitness
make CONFIG_64BIT=y ARCH=x86 whateverconfig # set architecture and bitness

but yes, in the long run i agree that 'ARCH=i386' would simply be a
(legacy) shortcut for:

CONFIG_64BIT=y ARCH=x86

and 'ARCH=x86_64' should be a (legacy) shortcut for:

CONFIG_64BIT=n ARCH=x86

Thanks,

Ingo
