Can we drop the test for $(COMPILER) here?
If one try this with gcc then gcc will just fail if it do not support the clang flags supplied.

And help section should be updated to list .ll too.

Can we drop the test for COMPILER here too?
Do -fverbose-asm make sense when generating .ll files?
It looks like a leftover from what you copied.

This chunk belongs together with the other chunk.
There is no reason to separate .S => .ll and .c => .ll rules.

The current rules for .c => .lst etc is a mess and not something to be too
much inspired from.
