This doesn't look like the same issue.  The global ASFLAGS includes
OMPFLAGS, and the freebsd-* targets correctly preserve ASFLAGS (only
adding to it in some of the targets).  (And I think we fixed cygwin-*
to do the same as well.  At least my Cygwin builds with OpenMP worked
just fine.)

Besides, I think you should have been getting duplicate symbols rather
than missing symbols.  So this is really not the same issue.
