i finally had the time to measue target buildkernel for amd64 and for i386:

make buildkernel KERNCONF=GENERIC TARGET=i386  248,84s user 47,29s system 101% cpu 4:52,15 total

vs.

make buildkernel KERNCONF=GENERIC TARGET=amd64  246,36s user 47,08s system 103% cpu 4:44,62 total

...so no difference in my case. this was tested on a very recent HEAD with arch=amd64.

cheers.
