Hm, this causes an FTBFS on i386 :(

https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=xen&arch=i386&ver=4.14.0%2B88-g1d1d1f5391-1&stamp=1608036439&raw=0

scripts/Kconfig.include:39: compiler 'i386-linux-gnu-gcc' not found

Oh, yay, on i386, the thing is named /usr/bin/i686-linux-gnu-gcc, sigh.

Since it's most important *right now* to get the security patches out, I
will re-upload with this change reverted. Afterwards we can see what the
best solution will be.
