This isn't for the name used in triples (which often are matched in 
configure scripts etc), but used for the ld emulation mode - where the 
current MinGW targets use the names "i386pe" for i386 and and "i386pep" 
for x86_64. I don't believe it's common to match those emulation names in 
configure scripts - these names are mostly a detail between how the 
compiler driver invokes the linker, and the linker itself.
