hotspot 32-bit on 64-bit "cross-compile" broken

[Erik Joelsson]

I'm not completely sure what you are trying to do, but I've noticed that 
the hotspot makefiles changed recently (as in after the last build-infra 
push to jdk8), which caused the spec.gmk to get indirectly included 
again at a later stage, after gcc.make (and friends) have been evaluated.

I have already fixed one issue that arose from this by setting 
JAVAC_FLAGS?= in the spec file to not override the settings in hotspot. 
Now it seems ASFLAGS is needing the same treatment. Looking closer 
though, I don't see why we are setting ASFLAGS other than for some sense 
of completeness. It's not used by anyone currently. I would rather just 
remove it until it's needed in some way, and then I would prefer using 
the same pattern as we have with LDFLAGS and CFLAGS, which is setting 
specific versions for specific purposes. (CFLAGS_JDKLIB etc).
