perl 5.34 fails to build on x32:

  t/io/msg ......................................................... # Failed test 2 - send a message at io/msg.t line 54
  # Failed test 3 - send a message (upgraded) at io/msg.t line 62
  # Failed test 4 - send a message (upgraded receiver) at io/msg.t line 69
  FAILED at test 2

The test is new with 5.34, so this does not indicate a regression in
functionality.

Jessica Clarke (cc'd) says this is expected as SysV IPC is broken on
x32 and suggests we skip the test for now but leave a bug open in the BTS.
