 This part conflicts with an existing patch for Makefile.am; and, since
 it's changing something that's spewed out by automake, it can't be
 fixed in Makefile.am. So I'm not immediately sure what to do about it.
 
 If libtool doesn't recognize what ends up in CCAS in Irix as an
 assembler, maybe it needs fixing?
 
 (I've committed the rest.)
