It is useful to be able to build .S files as built-in modules (in particular if you want ctypes as a built-in you need .S files)

The patch enables .S files to be specified in Setup.dist files.

[orsenthil]

Should not this be?

*.S) obj=basename $src .S.o; cc='$(CC)';; #

The filetype extension .S instead .cpp.

And, I have less know-how on these, but for my understanding how would
non-preprocessed asm files (.s) will be handled? And doc reference to
how this change is help as well (unless some other core dev knowing
BUILD takes up).

Thanks for the comments Senthil. I'll improve the patch fixing the bug, adding support for .s and updating the docs.
