I think it's explained in the GCC manual. Anyway, --build specifies
what machine you are building on, --host what machine you are building
for, and --target what machine you want the produced code to produce
code for (makes sense only for development tools I guess).

If you were developing on a Linux PC, you'd therefore write
something like:
configure --build=i586-linux --host=arm-linux --target=arm-linux

arm-linux-readelf -d your_exec
should help.
