Thanks for the clarification!

It has been nice to be able to test on 32-bit since it is another 
architecture but I guess we'll need to figure out another scheme. 
Perhaps test the one PG version that ships with Debian 11 and also run 
unit tests.

Obviously architectures need to be sunset at some point and it looks 
like i386 has reached that point.
