I copied the CXX files and modified them for ASM. But what do I do
with them now?

I can create CMakeFiles/CMakeASMCompiler.cmake and cmake will use
it. But then it looks for CMakeASMInformation.cmake only in the
systems cmake directory.

How can I tell it that there are more modules that it should get from
inside my source?
