I just read the Makefile changes again, a bit slower this time, and
noticed that you _first_ feed the .in.S file to gcc, and _then_ to the
perl script, instead of the other way around like I was expecting.
With that arrangement, your naming makes sense, since it reflects
which file format is contained in which. Sorry for the noise.
