The answer was given to you previously.  To get Python to build a 32-bit
extension, you must use the 32-bit version of Python to run setup.py.
Otherwise, it's always going to use the 64-bit compiler.

Also note that there is a typo in your command line.  You have an equals
sign in lib.linux=i686-2.3 where you should have a dash.
