While that's a ton of information, it didn't actually answer my 
question.  But after looking at:

  https://gitlab.com/libvirt/libvirt/-/tree/master/ci/containers

..it appears that the answer to my question is actually "i686 containers 
will need to be constructed and maintained from the Debian ecosystem 
instead of Fedora/RHEL"

Will that still work for foundational hardware-interacting things like 
Mesa?  I mean, you're all but guaranteed to have different major 
versions on the host system (eg Fedora's v25.x actively driving the 
desktop) vs what's in the container (eg v24.x in the Debian-derived i686 
container that gets invoked to run $game)
