For 32bit I use a hack of a workaround to make it work recursively.

Sadly this is not full proof or much help.
For clarity, what rikki is getting at here is that DUB does not yet
support compiling to the 32-bit COFF format. The --arch switch for dub
has two options: x86 and x86_64. The former will cause it to call dmd
with the -m32 switch. The only way to get use -m32mscoff is to specify
it manually. Doing so in the dflags entry of your dub configuration will
certainly cause errors if you have any dependencies in your
configuration (your source will be compiled with -m32mscoff, while
dependencies are compiled with -m32). I've not tried the environment
variable approach that rikki shows here, so I have no comment on that.
There is an issue in the DUB bug tracker to for this [1].
[1] https://github.com/dlang/dub/issues/628
What happens is dub uses DFLAGS as part of the identifier for builds and
will propagate it to dependencies. As long as you don't miss-match the
values of DFLAGS, you're good to go.
