OK, I gave it a try:

hdiutil create -size 16g -type UDIF -fs HFSX -volname Builds\
         -uid 0 -gid 0 -attach Builds.dmg
sudo vsdbutil -a /Volumes/Builds
cd /Volumes/Builds
sudo -s
mkdir Build9E17
cd Build9E17
darwinbuild -init 9E17
cp .build/9E17.plist .build/i386PC.plist
nano .build/i386PC.plist
### enter and save the following content

// !$*UTF8*$!
{
          build = i386PC;
          darwin = "Darwin 9.4";
          inherits = 9E17;
          environment = {
                  INSTALLED_PRODUCT_ASIDES = YES;
                  MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET = 10.5;
                  NEXT_ROOT = "";
                  RC_ARCHS = "i386";
                  RC_JASPER = YES;
                  RC_NONARCH_CFLAGS = "-pipe -no-cpp-precomp";
                  RC_OS = darwin;
                  RC_PRIVATE = /private;
                  RC_RELEASE = Leopard;
                  RC_XBS = YES;
                  SEPARATE_STRIP = YES;
                  UNAME_RELEASE = 9.0;
                  UNAME_SYSNAME = Darwin;
          };
}

### continue at the CLI

darwinxref loadIndex .build/i386PC.plist
darwinbuild -load CF
/usr/local/share/darwinbuild/installXcode /Volumes/Builds/Build9E17/ 
BuildRoot
darwinbuild -build=i386PC xnu

Finally:

[ /SourceCache/xnu/xnu-1228.5.20/ ] make do_build_install RELEASE  
I386 /private/var/tmp/xnu/xnu-1228.5.20.obj/RELEASE_I386/.

Seems, that I have a i386 Darwin 9.4 kernel now, I will try it out  
tomorrow at the PC and then let you know the result.

Best regards
