above the VARIABLES section in that man page there is the TERMS section which
explains:
target machine
The machine the compiler is building for, or the emulator will run
code for. This is only needed when building a cross-toolchain (or
emulator), one that will be built on the build architecture, to be
run on the host architecture, and to build (or run emulated) code
for the target architecture.
Unless you are building a compiler, you do not need to concern yourself with
the "target" architecture. Debian is using the GNU terminology and wRAR already
linked the relevant GNU documentation in the other mail.
Thanks!
