Actually, running the host in i686 mode is also useful for testing,
although it probably reduces the set of guests that you can run.

Fully emulated guests can be any architecture supported by qemu; but KVM
guests have to be arch compatible (i686 or x86_64 guests on x86_64 host,
i686 guests on i686 host) if you want the guest to be reasonably fast.
