You are required to set `AS' and `ASFLAGS' via `configure.in'. The

autoconf macro `AM_PROG_AS' will do this for you.  Unless they are
already set, it simply sets `AS' to the C compiler and `ASFLAGS' to the
C compiler flags.

LIES! :)

Actually it defaults to "as", not your compiler, and then it gives as the
flags it should have given to the C compiler. Anyway, fixed now, and bug
reported to the GNU guys :)
