Subject: post processing assembly with awk and .S files

Hello folks,

I've been digging through musl, and currently for x86_64 and i386 
targets, their are some post processing awk scripts to add CFI 
directives. However, this awk processing only gets invoked for
.s (lowercase) files. Capital .S files are omitted. This is fine for 
x86_64, as it doesn't use any .S (capital) files. However, i386, does 
have one .S (capital) file that is skipped. I ask this under the guise 
of other architectures that may wish to do post processing and include 
.S files, should we also be post-processing those? Was this just a 
simple oversight or is there a reason .S (capital) are skipped?

Thanks,
Bill
