I don't think it's worth the effort. By the time 5.0-RELEASE goes out,
the 386 will have been around for over 10 years (actually I think it has
already reached that point and gone beyond). There are not likely to be
many more installs of FreeBSD on 386's, let alone 5.x installs.
People who *really* want to install 5.x on a 386 can generate their own
kernel and such.
