So you are contradicting your self a bit. No known problems, and then

You don't have to build a 32-bit FPC because an official released 
installer exists.
So this is no problem at all. But seeing as pretty much everything is 
moving (or already has moved) to 64-bit, why bother with 32-bit these 
days. [referring to desktop and server applications - not embedded devices]
