  Otherwise, it is impossible to set ASFLAGS differently from CFLAGS
without also overriding essential flags such as -Wa,--noexecstack.

I understood that this patch will let us set ASFLAGS from the
command-line.  You mentioned CFLAGS because that's how we could indirectly
set ASFLAGS, right?

If so, looks good to me.

Correct, but it also affects compilation of C sources, so it is not 
always desirable to use this.

Thanks for the review!

This looks correct to me.
