Unfortunately no. All their machines are 64-bit [1] and they have "no immediate plans to add this feature" [2].
However, we could the following build configuration on a 64-bit machine:

export CFLAGS="-m32"
export LDFLAGS="-m32"

I think then we could catch these kind of warnings. Do you see a downside with this approach?
