I bought me a pair of them (36h rear, 24h front) about two years ago and laced the front hub radially with bladed spokes. Haven't had any problems with the front hub due to radial lacing even with winter riding (I live in Finland so the winters are a bit different here compared to British ones).
I guess they haven't changed the model that much. I'd say you are safe to lace your front hub radial even though you have 32 holes.
The front hub costs £15 so what's the problem anyway if it breaks, which it won't.
