Problem with AM_PROG_AS macro on AIX5.1 in automake-1.7.3

[Bob Deblier]

Dear,

Judging from the contents of file as.m4, you're using an incorrect way of
assigning both CCAS and CCASFLAGS variables; on the platform mentioned above
these don't work as expected.

I can refer to this page for GNU's guidelines on portable shell programming:

Sincerely,

Bob Deblier
