If I read your bug report correctly, this issue happens for you on 1 out
of 3 systems, right? The old Acer laptop.

My guess is, that this is not 32 bit related, but rather that your 32
bit system, where you encounter this issue, is rather old and likely
slower then your other systems.

As this looks like a race condition, you don't hit the problem on your
newer systems.

See the logs I posted. I can partially reproduce the problem, that there
is an attempt for usr.mount to be stopped, but that request is cancelled
quickly enough so the actual umount never happens.
