This works as designed. If you don't specify --with-as=xxx at configure time,
the compiler is configured to pick whatever assembler it finds at run time. On
Solaris, the default is the Sun assembler.

Likewise. --with-gnu-as doesn't mean "pick the GNU assembler", it means that
the default assembler GCC will find is the GNU assembler.
