So which drivers in sys/pci compile against those targets?  IMHO until a
driver has been compiled and ported to a specific arch we shouldn't be
mis-filing them in sys/pci.

sys/i386/pci should work just fine.

Actually, I'd really like to see 

sys/bus/{isa,eisa,pci}
sys/i386/{isa,eisa,pci}
sys/pc98/{isa,eisa,pci}
...

Which would reduce the amount of divergence to support arch dependent
bits.

I'm sure the PC98 guys would be able to express how much they would enjoy
not having to constantly pull up their files to -current.

NetBSD does have its problems but they've taken steps towards resolving
some of these issues.
