I for the moment have worked out a way to force all the defines through
gcc to the assembler.
Also, there any way to get automake to compile a .c file to .o and not
make a library or program out of it?
I'm doing some cross-compiling stuff that only seems to work if I compile
files to .o and use the linker to create a binary... this is a pain in
automake ...
ie. what I do at the moment
