Re: nasm support?

[Timothee Besset]

I would rather avoid having to modify cons to get what I want in there. Or
at least apply very minimal changes.

I think I have a beginning of solution so far:

$env_nasm = new cons(
  CC => 'nasm',
  CFLAGS => '',
  CCCOM => '%CC -f elf -o %> %<'
);

And then I use something like:
Library $env_nasm 'asmlib', 'ftol.c', 'snapvector.c';

ftol.c snapvector.c ARE actually my .nasm files I had to rename, my
current problem is that I can't get cons to execute the CCCOM command on
files with the .nasm suffix.

I tried adding '.nasm' => 'build::command::cc', in the SUFMAP definition
in cons, I tried putting it in the cons object declaration too:
$env_nasm = new cons(
  CC => 'nasm',
  CFLAGS => '',
  CCCOM => '%CC -f elf -o %> %<',
  SUFMAP => { '.nasm' => 'build::command::cc' }
);

but that doesn't seem to work, I'm getting:
"don't know how to construct .../ftol.o from .../ftol.nasm"

any ideas?
