I prefer v3 since it is cleaner, but unfortunately
it does not work for Clang+GAS.


With v3 applied, I still see the debug info.

  L (link order), O (extra OS processing required), G (group), T (TLS),
  C (compressed), x (unknown), o (OS specific), E (exclude),
  D (mbind), l (large), p (processor specific)






With -g0 given, GCC stops passing -g -gdwarf-4 down to GAS.


Clang does not do anything about -g0 for the external assembler.




I was thinking of dropping LLVM_IAS=0 support.
When we decide to give up -fno-integrated-as,
we can clean up the code in various places.


Anyway, v3 does not work in the current situation.


V2 works for all usecases.
