This is not a configure option, it's the name of the installed mingw32 binaries. They are supposed to follow the GNU naming convention for cross-compilers, and they do on all sane distros AFAIK.
Right I get that. I just mean that its pretty common to see homebrewed cross-compilers with just mingw32 as the prefix. The reason I guess is that on Windows (c:\mingw\bin*) it does not follow the gnu naming convention because it does not have to follow it and people carry that over when they are rolling their own cross-compiler. Now that most distro's are shipping mingw packages this is less common. I guess your argument is right and anyone rolling their own should get with the program and follow the standard.
