Simplest: use ${CFLAGS:N-aout:N-elf} instead of ${CFLAGS} for building
linux_genassym.
Correct: use the same rules as the kernel Makefile for building
linux_genassym. The latter are currently given in files.i386. I don't
like putting elaborate rules in conf/files i386/conf/files.i386. They
clutter the files lists and are harder to write than rules in Makefiles,
and still aren't visible in LKM makefiles. Perhaps the rules should be
collected in bsd.kern.mk. Then they would only do anything (except waste
a tiny amount of time) if the files that they are for are actually used.
Most of the rules in Makefile.i386 aren't i386-specific and could go
there too.
