Actually, it does.  It has to call on the UEFI firmware to obtain the
system memory map.  Then of course, the installer has to make uefi
calls to point the boot catalog at grub.

So, you booted the 64 bit cd, and manually installed 32 bit grub?  And
that worked fine, including being able to run efibootmgr?  If so then
I guess the kernel is smart enough to thunk the 32 bit firmware calls
and so adding the 32 bit signed grub to the 64 bit cd should be fairly
simple.
