Thanks for your explanation. I have just opened the config.log to see what is 
the benefits. But I can't see much. 

Here is the result of my build case:
configure:3962: checking build system type
configure:3976: result: i386-pc-mingw32
configure:3996: checking host system type
configure:4009: result: i386-pc-mingw32
configure:4029: checking target system type
configure:4042: result: i386-pc-mingw32

Do you mean that i686-w64-mingw32 will have better optimization code generated? 
(code instruction for i686, not i386)
Thanks.
