That's a bug, LilyPond lengthen the stem if it's too short.

Yes, you can kludge a fix by increasing the stem length, temporarily,
see below.

   \score{
     \notes{
       % longer stems, to make place for tremolos
       \property Voice.Stem \override #'length = #9
       \stemUp c''4:32 r c''2:32 c''1:32
       \property Voice.Stem \revert
     }
   }
