Get assembly files?

[chriselrod]

It'd be very useful if we could get assembly files (and to also be able to set -masm=intel on x64).
However, I could not find any way of doing this.

Googling suggested adding -save-temps as an option should work, but I cannot successfully compile with it.

/usr/bin/../lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/12/../../../../include/c++/12/x86_64-redhat-linux/bits/c++config.h:2549:15: error: redefinition of '__terminate'
  inline void __terminate() noexcept

If you only need this for a few files from your build, I think you can get the compiler with meson.get_compiler(...) and then pass it to custom_target or similar to generate the assembly as needed (i.e. gcc -masm=intel -S -o asm.s source.cpp)

GCC also lets you control where the temporaries are stored, using -dumpbase/-dumpdir and -save-temps=.... https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Overall-Options.html#Overall-Options, that might help?
