Integrating “safe” languages into OpenBSD?
They support 486's though, which is quite rare for 2017.

486s and 586s are still sold for usage as embedded systems. They are well understood and some of them managed to pass certification decades ago.

You can still buy 32-bit Xeons, even. Sometimes srs bsns requires stability, too.

not to mention, 386 or not, there's still other 'odd' 32bit platforms which still have huge use for embedded things where openbsd would work great (hello mips/arm32, for starters)

There's a 32-bit x86 processor in every PC with the Intel Management Engine version 11 or later.
