If you do not already have a jdk installed, you cannot emerge openjdk since on x86 the -bin variants are not available. I think icedtea-bin was the only remaining binary to bootstrap java on x86. Reproducible: Always
That's a good reason to keep icedtea-bin around for now.

There is an Adoptium x86 binary for 8u: https://adoptium.net/temurin/releases/?arch=x86&version=8 so it should be possible to add this to dev-java/openjdk-bin and then drop dev-java/icedtea-bin. At the very least, dev-java/icedtea-bin should be x86 only and have a warning that it needs to be replaced by an up-to-date JDK built from source. The current dev-java/icedtea-bin is older than even dev-java/icedtea and so subject to multiple CVEs.

How could we use it for Linux? Sorry, I didn't realise it had switched me over from Linux to 'any'. It looks like Azul are the only vendor to offer x86_32 Linux: https://adoptium.net/marketplace/?arch=x86&version=8 https://www.azul.com/downloads/?version=java-8-lts&os=linux&architecture=x86-32-bit&package=jdk#zulu I don't know if that's worth a try.
This commit should allow building openjdk:8 on x86 without icedtea-bin: https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=d12dc30217085d3a6605b85e5d7a2a26be81ea7c
