I was just about to ask -- thanks for confirming!

And what controls whether an x86 target is built in? What happens in
its absence? It's not really a critical error for syntax-only tools,
so it would be nice if LLVMInitializeX86* could warn instead of
failing. Or maybe there needs to be a way for tools to ask whether the
target is available before attempting to initialize, so they can shape
the warning themselves.
