It might be late, but if you ever want to use /usr/bin/as, here's what you need 
to change:

- In AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE add '-Wno-override' after '-Wall' to allow override 
Automake rules:

    AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE([-Wall -Wno-override -Werror])

- In Makefile.am add the custom rule:

    .s.o:
        $(AS) $(ASFLAGS) -o $@ $<

- Don't use AM_CCASFLAGS.
