The GNU configure scripts usually match on i[3456]86-*-*) for
architecture support, so that's not a problem.
I usually do something like:
a = $(shell dpkg --print-architecture)
ifeq (i386,$(a))
arch = i486-debian-linux
else
arch = $(a)-debian-linux
build: config.status
make
config.status:
./configure --prefix=/usr $(arch)
