OK, thanks also to others who answered. So the simplest method to do this ./configure --host=i686-pc-mingw32 --build=i386-pc-linux-gnu generically is ./configure --host=i686-pc-mingw32 --build=$(./config.guess) > When using a cross toolchain, you should also set the --build and --host > arguments rather than just modifying CC. Of course I set --host. I hoped there is some shortcut for setting --build as above. But well, running config.guess is not that bad.
