I hope someone else will be able to suggest a better approach (it would be
interesting for me too), but what I would do is this:
1) create a 386 virtual machine (kvm, vmware, ...)
2) install a 386 fedora (better if you match the version which is on the old laptop)
3) compile in the vm
This will work for sure.
Way over thinking it I think. Use mock[1][2] that's what the buildsystem does.
