I noticed that the project currently provides 32bit DLL's in the release.
Is anyone using them?

Absolutely !
We have migrated a big old ODBC 32 bits project from Access/SQL Server to ODBC32bits Postgresql because of stability of Postgresql. Many 32bits projects developed in 90's continue to be used and run on modern computers...
We maintain old VC6 32bits projects (MS FORTRAN+MS VC6+ODBC) using an XP VM on modern (linux...) computer. And the .exe resulting of these projects run on W10/W11 computers with modern Posgresql...
Independence of MS is strategic !

OK, I think I have the message :)
Thanks

Building PostgreSQL on 32bits in order to get libpq dll's seems to be challenging. If anyone has some experience doing this, let me know.
