Sys names have historically been "arch_system".  I.e., See this (dated, but
accurate) file: /afs/transarc.com/service/systypes

We've already been using "i386_fbsd21" and "i386_fbsd22"
(see /afs/ri.osf.org/vice/i386_fbsd21).  I suggest you stick with that format.

Note that "i386" is (unfortunately) generic for the Intel family and is used
as such in many other PC-UNIX ports (i386_linux2 and i386_nbsd1, for instance).
