I think so, since the target knows it is creating an asm printer. It
didn't look like the correct thing to do. For example, if I am in a
darwin 9 system and I run "clang -S", it is probably because I am
reading the output and would expect to see .loc directives in it.
Having said that, I don't actually have a darwin 9 (or lower) system,
so I don't know what its users would prefer.

Setting this from the FE is also necessary if anyone wants to
implement a command line option to turn it on and off (I don't
actually think it is necessary).
