Oh, 32-bit OS is pretty unusual for the GPU stuff.  This may make your
testing more valuable to us. ;-)

It sounds like you ran into the same problem that I did, which magnum
has since reported as fixed.  My guess is that maybe the fix was only
applied for 64-bit make targets.  magnum?

Meanwhile, you may run the actual CUDA and OpenCL tests directly.  The
command:

./john | egrep 'cuda|opencl'

will tell you the names of "formats" that use CUDA or OpenCL.  Then you
may test those with:

./john --test --format=phpass-cuda

and so on.

Thanks,

Alexander
