Is there any reason that we have sys/i386 and not sys/arch/i386? I think the latter is a lot cleaner

"I think it's cleaner" is not good enough. What *technical* reason can you come up with to make such a change? Keep in mind that we decided not to do this several years ago, when there were only three platforms to support. Now there are eight, with innumerably more people and scripts used to the current layout.
