On Windows outside of gcc, assembly source is normally named *.asm. R only uses one assembly source file named *.S so I think it's fairly unlikely that this will cause confusion. I don't know if it's more common on OS X. On the other hand, *.s or *.S are reasonably common names for S source files in packages, so I think this is a useful change, at least in Windows.
