Trying to run makedepend for X11R5 I discovered that gcc -E foo.s will run
the assember, rather than stopping after performing any preprocessing:

---foo.s---
#define florp blorp
        florp
---
% gcc -v -E foo.s
Reading specs from /usr/local/lib/gcc-2.3.3/gcc-lib/sparc-sun-sunos4.1/2.3.3/specs
gcc version 2.3.3
 as -o /usr/tmp/cca233591.o foo.s
as: "foo.s", line 1: error: unknown opcode "FLORP"
as: "foo.s", line 1: error: statement syntax
gcc: /usr/tmp/cca233591.o: No such file or directory

Sun cc produces:
% cc -E foo.s
# 1 "foo.s" 

        blorp

I inferred from the manpage that
	-c stops after producing .o
	-S stops after producing .s
	-E stops after producing cpp file

It wasn't clear what was supposed to happen with a .s file, but Sun's behavior
seems consistent. Am I misunderstanding something?
