+<p>The ARM target now includes a full featured macro assembler, including
+direct-to-object module support for clang. The assembler is currently enabled
+by default for Darwin only pending testing and any additional necessary
+platform specific support for Linux.</p>
+
+<p>Full support is included for Thumb1, Thumb2 and ARM modes, along with
+subtarget and CPU specific extensions for VFP2, VFP3 and NEON.</p>
+
+<p>The assembler is Unified Syntax only (see ARM Architecural Reference Manual
+for details). While there is some, and growing, support for pre-unfied (divided)
+syntax, there are still significant gaps in that support.</p>
