After a closer look, that's actually not correct, this seems to work
with Clang+LLD no matter which assembler is used. I suppose we could
test for .gasversion. to detect GNU as, but that's hardly ideal.

Sure, looks good to me. However, I think we should also test for
LLVM=1 to avoid possible further issues with mismatched toolchains
instead of only checking for llvm-nm and llvm-ar.
