I use 32-bit windows wheels because of automated tests I have for some C embedded device. I use pieces from my GUI app and also javabridge which has to be 32-bit to agree with the TI Code Composer Studio which is only available as 32-bit on Windows presently (and only 64 on Linux... *sigh*).
How much effort is it to maintain the 32 bit wheel build? Any chance of getting a copy of the reference wheel build script you use? It seems like we could setup automated builds (including snapshots) and probably get some community support to keep them going.
