    build: silence GNU ld 2.39 warning about executable stacks
    
    While for C files the compiler is supposed to arrange for emitting
    respective information, for assembly sources we're responsible ourselves.
    
    For the new use of cc-option to work we cannot pass -S to the compiler
    anymore. We need the compiler to actually invoke the assembler, so switch
    to using -c.
