I think this is failing to replicate the current behavior where a .sub
file in src/*/$(ARCH)$(ASMSUBARCH) replaces the .s file in
src/*/$(ARCH). In cases where both exist we'll end up with duplicate
symbol errors linking libc.so and both present (with the wrong one
likely getting used) in libc.a.

This problem will of course disappear when we get rid of .sub files,
but that doesn't help unless we remove .sub files first.

I suppose all that's needed for now is to add more EXCLUDE_OBJS using
the same input but with:

	$(subst /$(ARCH)$(ASMSUBARCH)/,/$(ARCH)/,...

instead of:

	$(subst /$(ARCH)$(ASMSUBARCH)/,/,...

Does this sound right?
