You won't need to care about i686 after CentOS 6/7 reaching their EOL. Now the
fact is, vendor doesn't want to support ix86 while increasing the burden to
downstream. I have to say I agree with Red Hat's decision but also big thanks
to Google to let me still have ability to enjoy the Internet without Mozilla
crapfox.

NaCl is a serious issue indeed, I'm not sure if Fedora has loosened the
guideline, but it's a blocker of this package, and solving this is not easy.
