Comment (by boklm):

 Branch `bug_21824_v2` has a commit doing that:
 https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/boklm/tor-browser-
 build.git/commit/?h=bug_21824_v2&id=099f6bcff717bb59c6e9f00a00857df2b2d91063

 In this branch we are now using `runc.io` instead of `docker`. We are
 starting with an Ubuntu 17.04 image which we download from
 cdimage.ubuntu.com, and use it in a runc container to generate with
 `debootstrap` the Ubuntu and Debian images that we need.

 With this change we are now able to run i386 containers.
