I'm afraid discontinuing i586 would be something I would call acknowledging the state of things and stopping pretending rather than some big and groundbreaking step.
Last I checked every distrowatch listing above openSUSE still provided a 32 bit version, and IIRC, it was necessary to drop below the top 10 to find one that didn't. Fedora still calls its 386.
They may call it so but as 386 CPU support in mainline kernel was dropped in December 2012, I seriously doubt they make the effort to keep maintaining all the hacks needed to actually run on 386.
They actually require 686+.
