There's no rhel7 i686 edition, but there is i686 support in the x86_64
edition, I beieve.
At least CentOS 7 has several i686 rpms, according to random mirror:
$ lynx -dump
http://centos.eecs.wsu.edu/7/os/x86_64/Packages/ | grep -c
i686 4446
Mere existence of i686 rpms in rhel7/centos7 is does not imply either that
wine.i686 exists or that epel7 can build it. That's the point I've been
trying to make (poorly, apparently).
