 I don't know about those but I do know clang can be told to call (g)as
instead of using its internal assembler by passing -no-integrated-as.

 Heh I didn't know about --enable-tcg-interpreter...  The following
patch makes the port build, but the result is much slower than with
gcc. (and without --enable-tcg-interpreter.)  And also halt -p in a
FreeBSD guest causes qemu-system-x86_64 to fail with a tcg error.

 I'm not sure it makes much sense to commit this nevertheless...?
