--- Comment #2 from Jan Beulich <jbeulich at suse dot com> ---
So this is precisely the case that the new behavior is intended to catch: It is
meaningless to restrict ISA to i386 when trying to build 64-bit code. In the
kexec example, the .code32 comes too late anyway (would have wanted to be at
least before the label already before); wants moving ahead of the .arch.

IOW for now I view this as neither a bug nor a regression; earlier gas simply
was to lax. I'm open to be convinced otherwise ...
