Hmmm... good question. AFAICT, we don't prohibit or inhibit based
on the tier level. I guess in this case it's just a matter of how
the process is designed: we only build i386 because that was the
only platform we had when designing the process (probably).

I've cc'd doc@ on this. They should be able to give an authoritative
answer.

To doc:
1. Is the above correct?
2. Is there a way we could get the platform specific man pages
   included as well?
