I have found the part in my configure file, dough it looks a little bit 
different

    # Canonicalize the secondary target names.
    result=`${CONFIG_SHELL-/bin/sh} $ac_config_sub $targ_alias 2>/dev/null`
    if test -n "$result"; then
 targ=$result
    else
 targ=$targ_alias
    fi

    . ${srcdir}/configure.tgt

obviously it must end up in the else branch (targ=$targ_alias) as you 
already said. Now I have to figure out why this happens.
Thanks for your help.
