I do not know why they do this, or whether you would get a working
gas by simply taking it out of the noconfigdirs list. You could
give it a try and let us know.
judging by the manpages, Apple uses variants of as(1)[1] very
different to
gnu's. (the same goes for ld(1) [2]) - gnu binutils's as/ld/... probably
can't handle Mach-O binaries and/or universal binaries.
