Looking at the build logs for F-12, e.g.:
http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/glib2/2.22.4/1.fc12/data/logs/i68...
we seem to have things set up to run configure as:
--build=i386-redhat-linux-gnu --host=i386-redhat-linux-gnu --target=i686-redhat-linux-gnu
This comes from the rpm %configure macro, which hasn't changed:
./configure --build=%{_build} --host=%{_host} \\ --target=%{_target_platform} \\
%{_host} is set by the rpm package in the macros file, %{_build} defaults to the value of %{_host}. %{_target_platform} comes from --target on the command line, plus the usual vendor/OS bits
--target is what is set by rpm/mock. I think it defaults to %{_host} if it's not otherwise specified, but we specify it when building for i686, as we could theoretically still build i386 packages.
