I found the same thing.

The problem is that the 3-arg form of .file is now backwards w.r.t. setting
of integrated assembler. To reproduce:

$ clang -no-integrated-as -S a/x.c -o - -g | grep file
.file 1 "a" "x.c"

vs.

$ clang -S a/x.c -o - -g | grep file
.file 1 "a/x.c"

Binutils doesn't support the 3-arg format, so unless we know we're using
the integrated assembler we can't emit that. As I recall, clang -S would
emit the 2-argument form unless you passed -integrated-as -S on the
command-line.
