That was going to be my suggestion. Not Fedora, abut a 32 bit virtual.

A 64 bit machine which is 32 bit capable, is a completely
different machine in 32 bit mode than it is in 64 bit mode.
I recall back in the bad old days when I had a little
S-100 bus machine with a processors which had two modes
of operation for the same chip. It could run as an 8085
look alike, or as an 8088 look alike. I ran it as an
8085 with CP/M.
For purposes of compiling, etc. the two modes were effectively
entirely different computers. The fact that they share silicon
is irrelevant. 64 bit mode and 32 bit mode are separate
machines from the standpoint of software builds.
