Well, that will certainly not be the case, they won't remove i386, because that's the difference between ARCHS_STANDARD_32_64_BIT and ARCHS_STANDARD_64_BIT. I think that adding ppc64 was really a bug, because it was never fully supported, so removing that could have been considered a bug fix. However this cannot be argued for removing ppc, especially as ppc is on some computers the only remaining compatible architecture.
