Attached. I proposed to try to removed some of the calls to
assemble_external in the FE. I started with the ones in C++ and was
surprised to see no regressions on x86 and x86-64 by just removing
them.

I suspect that's because x86 doesn't need assemble_external to reference an external symbol. I remember it being most important for HPPA targets.
