Your issue is the use of wrong option here for passing as' arguments. Use '--as-flags=--32 -m i386' instead for 32-bit. This should work as you desire. For 64-bit use '--as-flags=--64 -m i386:x86-64'. I admit that this target-specifiers in binutils are a mess, and not a single tool shares same option set to specify target ... but well this isn't grown on our mug-pile ... we just need to live by it.
