from an earlier discussion (initiated by me):

"You *MUST* use a HOST SYSTEM compiled for the LOWEST processor you want 
to installworld to. There are a few places (strip for one) that link in 
/usr/lib/libc.a and NOT the one from /usr/obj/... "

Thus you can't use an i686 optimized world host box to install a lower 
optimized /usr/obj to.
