Tested again just now. Same here with similar command (can use only i386
here). However:

debootstrap --arch i386 --exclude systemd,systemd-sysv,libsystemd0
jessie my/bootstrap/dir/

(no url specified) the bootstrap completes without errors.

Is there something wrong with how it parses a specified URL?

Note I already discovered, the "excudes" are (at the moment) still
needed. The debian mainstream version doesn't seem to allow that.
