Yeah, you're probably right.  But lots of times I'll do this:

CFLAGS="...." LDFLAGS="....." ./configure 

and if it were me, I *know* I'd forget to add "-mno-win32" every time. 
However, I hardly ever mess with "CC" or "CXX". Therefore, those
variables are "safe" -- they won't be accidentally overridden.  But
that's just my tendencies.  I'm sure other people have their own.
