It can actually be a problem to keep changing the name of the config, 
but only for people like me who use a unix->dos cross-compiler.  IIRC 
the only place that uses the ix86-pc-msdosdjgpp is in the patch file
that Robert put together for binutils.  I don't think if you get the 
latest binutils source from pub/GNU that it includes those changes yet.
So, I think we would probably be safe to change to something more
generic as suggested above, but we just need to make sure that 
binutils, gcc, and egcs all match.  Its not even too much trouble on unix, you
just have to know to symlink the directories togother, and then symlink
a couple of the bin files.
