Then that's what you should use, it provides some /usr/bin/mig-something
that you can tell configure to use with MIG=, just like CC= and LD=

Yes, because the debian package passes explictly --build= and --host=,
and thus configure finds mig-i686-gnu, so the packaging only has to
build-depend on the mig-i686-gnu on Debian Hurd.

Then the problem is in the documentation that told that apt-get
build-dep was enough. Where was it?

They are for the debian builds in general, be they cross builds or
non-cross builds.
If somebody could go through these documentations and update them that'd
be very useful.
