32-bit .exe can be build either by MinGW3 (considered by Fedora as obsolete
now)
http://www.mingw.org/
or by MinGW64 in 32-bit mode
http://mingw-w64.sourceforge.net/
at least according to:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Mingw-w64_cross_compiler

From the Fedora point of view MinGW64 32-bit mode seems to be a superset of
MinGW32 so why to care about MinGW32 anymore? Or what do I miss?
