32-bit DMA chips for what bus?  Are you talking about a DMA controller to
go on the motherboard, or a bus master interface chip to go on a peripheral
card, or a DMA interface chip to go on a peripheral card?

If you just want a general purpose DMA chip (whatever that is), check out
the MEAN chip from NCR.  I believe the part number is 86C05.  The "MEAN"
acronym stands for Mico Channel/EISA/AT-bus/NuBus.  This chip is strap
selectable for handling any of those bus interface standards!  It is 
intended for use as a bus-master interface on a peripheral card.
