Building a free-standing binary with zig build-exe

I’m seeing a lot of resources mention i386-freestanding

zig build-exe kernel/kmain.zig -femit-bin -fno-entry -target i386-freestanding

using 14 devel this returns:
error: unable to parse target query 'i386-freestanding': UnknownArchitecture

has this changed recently? or been removed?

The target is x86-freestanding.

zig targets displays a json file with everything related to targets.
zig targets | jq -r .arch displays the architectures:

[
  "arm",
  "armeb",
  "aarch64",
  "aarch64_be",
  "aarch64_32",
...
  "thumb",
  "thumbeb",
  "x86",
  "x86_64",
...
  "wasm32",
  "wasm64",
  "renderscript32",
  "renderscript64",
  "ve",
  "spu_2"
]
