Haven't tried it but this may work

  % ./configure --host=i386-pc-linux-gnu
  % make TARGET=i386-pc-linux-gnu

Are you sure -host will make a difference for vanilla "configure"
scripts, i.e. that it will set -mARCH to gcc? I know it will if you
build gcc or maybe recompile a kernel but I thought this was because
they explicitely handled this in their "configure.in".

I haven't tried this but mayby something like (in sh/bash)

  % CFLAGS="-g -O2 -m386" ./configure

will work if we pass CFLAGS correctly between the make files.

If nothing of the above works I'm afraid we will not be able
to do something about this to R9C-0,
