So don't do that. Specifying host is for cross-compilation. Specifying
build without host is for overriding the result of config.guess (never
necessary on Cygwin). See
https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf-2.69/html_node/Specifying-Target-Triplets.html
In particular: "If you mean to override the result of config.guess, use
--build, not --host, since the latter enables cross-compilation."
