Description

In #119, we temporarily turned on 32-bit builds, which all failed. It would be good to run CI on 32-bit builds to work out if this is an issue with tolerances in the test suite or in the source itself, since it would be handy to use this package to check AD rules on 32-bit machines as well.

Research direction

Review issue #119 and the repository's CI configuration first, then run the 32-bit builds and inspect their failures. Determine whether the failures come from test tolerances or the source itself; done means 32-bit CI runs and the failure cause is addressed or clearly documented.
