You need and "=" in there, as in

        target=i686

I found by mistake that some sloppy specfiles will allow stupid things,
too. Such as

        target=686
        target=6
        target=kitty
        target=antidisestablishmentarianism

The build will proceed along happily and actually try to create such a
critter. Can't recall if it actually finished as it's been some months.
But, I think I found out only after the build was successful and I
couldn't find the rpm, which would mean it completed properly.
