I tried using

"setarch i386 bash"

"make clean dist"

It's still compiling, but it looks like it might work...

[You may need to install setarch on your machine, as some machines don't have it installed as default. setarch allows the machine to set a flag so that when something like uname is asking "What processor is this" the answer will be "i686" instead of "x86_64", and thus tools that use for example "uname -m" to find the CPU type, will figure that it's a 32-bit processor instead of 64-bit.

However, you may need to have certain libraries and other tools installed on the machine to build 32-bit binaries.

The libraries is going to be one major problem i guess as already the same libraries are installed in 64bit mode and the system won't allow both to be installed :(
