Using a recent CVS automake (checked out at Thu May 31 14:41:26 BST 2001),
and autoconf 2.50, I find that I now need to define ASFLAGS and AS in my
configure.{in,ac} in order to compile assembly sources.  This seems
entirely reasonable; I just have two questions:

 i) Is there any documentation of this yet?  I couldn't find any, and simply
    had to guess what to do from error messages and sources.

ii) Is there a recommended way to set ASFLAGS to a default value.  I've
    currently put

      AS="$CC"
      AC_SUBST(AS)
      AC_SUBST(ASFLAGS)

    into my configure.ac, but this is rather unsatisfactory.  Neither
    autoconf nor automake seem to provide a macro, though I may be missing
    something.
