You should have read Panu's question:

The answer to it is: configure --host=HOST

Or more detailed:
./configure --host=HOST --prefix=%{_prefix}/HOST \
  CFLAGS="%HOST_CFLAGS"

Details on --prefix, --libdir etc. may require package specific custom 
settings (e.g. libdir may require HOST multilib custom settings.)
