 Replying to [comment:29 leif]:
 > We could check whether `clang -print-prog-name=as` still gives Apple's
 version of GAS, and if so, use `as -q`.

 I'll try `as -q` on 10.9 and report back.

 in that case?

 On 10.9 `/usr/bin/as` is a tiny 14K executable, so I guess it must
 function basically as a shell script.

 > P.S.: I didn't know it is at all possible to install the command line
 tools without installing Xcode...

 This has been possible for a while.  On clean 10.9 machine if you type
 "clang" in Terminal.app, then a dialog pops up to ask if you want to
 install the command line tools, though there is also a button to install
 the whole of Xcode.

 >  Does Sage build without having Xcode installed?

 I'm about to find out ;-).  It should, I think.  At the very least, it can
 build everything up to NTL.
