Maybe you could try to build from source? The instructions at
https://github.com/therealglazou/bluegriffon
at a quick glance look quite detailed, and I assume you are not
interested in the expensive extra-features from the binary packages
anyway?
Or, the (maybe) easier way, try to pick one of the older releases from
http://bluegriffon.org/freshmeat/ and see if one of these can be installed
and run on your system (2.3.1 appears to be the latest that comes with a
386 deb).
