you can use

 .file "foo.s"

i think passing down the build command that way is not ok

" may be used inside CFLAGS (and there are other shell quote issues)
it hides the build command in the make output
it's not clear if the build correctly handles if CC fails

it only matches with immediate ,

i'd just clean the whitespaces up so you dont have to add \s* or \s+
to every regex (see below)

awk converts strings to numbers, but hex is unfortunately not guaranteed
to be supported (otherwise strtod conversion rules apply)

but you can implement parse_const(s) as

	sign = sub(/^-/,"",s)
	hex = sub(/^0x/,"",s)
	if (hex)
		n = hex2int(s)
	else
		n = s+0
	return sign ? -n : n

this does not handle binary (0b11) and octal (0123) asm consts
(i think you should check for those and emit a warning).

> +{ print }

i'd do it something like

{
	# print original line
	print

	# avoid generating .cfi based on comments
	gsub(/(#|\/\/).*/,"")

	# canonicalize whitespaces
	gsub(/\s+/," ")
	gsub(/ *, */,",")
	gsub(/ *: */,": ")
	sub(/ $/,"")
	sub(/^ /,"")

	# dont do anything with string consts
	if ($0 ~ /^\.(ascii|str).*"/)
		next

	# possibly handle /**/ and multiline string consts (split by \)
	# if you dont want to do that then check for it and print warning
	if ($0 ~ /\/\*/ || $0 ~ /\\/)
		print ARGV[0] ": warning: unhandled asm: " $0 > "/dev/stderr"
}

may be spelt as .globl too

i think

 pushl $123
 push $123

are different

set LC_ALL=C because you depend on collation order
in the awk script

or use [[:alnum:]] etc in the regex

add new lines at the end
