I guess it would be easier to instruct the Debian-supplied gcc to compile
for i686 by using the -march=i686 flag. If you're compiling Debian sources
you could alter dkpg-architecture to spit out i686 instead of i386, and if
you're compiling anything else from source you might want to try editing the
Makefile's CFLAGS macro to say -march=i686 in addition to what's already in
there.
