its failing while building syslinux-native package and as it seems
from errors, its not building com32 bits by passing -m32
flags to compiler. Seems like you need to hack syslinux build and add
-m32 when building com32/ subdir or alternatively
remove it from build

sed -e 's,com32/\S*,,g' -i Makefile

but that may not be best thing to do.
