The idea was to be able to generate different config files for different
platforms. From doc/Cross-Building.txt::

  Cross-Building with PyInstaller
  ===================================

  Currently only bundling one-file/ond-dir for Win32 on Linux ist
  supported. Building the executables or even building extension modules
  is not supported.

  Setup:
    ./Configure.py -c config-cross.dat \
                 --tar win32 \
                 --executable /mnt/windows/Python25/python.exe

Now one could use this config-cross.dat as config file when generating
packages.

Arguable one can specify target and executable again if running
Configure.py again.

So overall I think your patch is okay since it behaves more obvious. Go on!
