I'm bringing this topic back (from nearly two years ago): does anyone care 
about 32 bit support for Open MPI >= v5.0.0?

I ask because we disabled 32 bit builds on main and v5.0.x about 2 weeks ago 
(by making configure fail when it is building in a 32-bit environment).
A few days ago, we some pushback from the Debian community: 
https://github.com/open-mpi/ompi/pull/11282#issuecomment-1416364660.

Alistair / Debian: did this March 2021 message here on the packagers list fly 
under your radar?  Does Debian actually care about 32 bit support for Open MPI?

Open MPI packagers --

We're seriously contemplating dropping 32 bit support for Open MPI v5.0 (32-bit 
support will continue in Open MPI series prior to v5.0.x -- for example, the 
v4.1.x series will continue to have 32-bit support).

Will this be a problem for the downstream Open MPI packagers?
