A quick grep through arch/ gives me the following :

arch/cris/arch-v10/boot/compressed/Makefile
        @$(CC) -D__ASSEMBLY__ -traditional -c $< -o $@
arch/cris/arch-v10/boot/rescue/Makefile
asflags-y += -traditional
arch/cris/arch-v10/lib/Makefile
EXTRA_AFLAGS := -traditional
arch/h8300/boot/compressed/Makefile
EXTRA_AFLAGS    := -traditional
arch/m32r/boot/compressed/Makefile
EXTRA_AFLAGS    := -traditional
arch/m32r/kernel/Makefile
EXTRA_AFLAGS    := -traditional
arch/m68k/fpsp040/Makefile
EXTRA_AFLAGS := -traditional
arch/m68k/ifpsp060/Makefile
EXTRA_AFLAGS := -traditional
arch/m68k/kernel/Makefile
EXTRA_AFLAGS := -traditional
arch/m68k/lib/Makefile
EXTRA_AFLAGS := -traditional
arch/m68k/math-emu/Makefile
EXTRA_AFLAGS := -traditional
arch/parisc/kernel/Makefile
AFLAGS_entry.o  := -traditional
AFLAGS_pacache.o := -traditional
arch/powerpc/boot/Makefile
BOOTAFLAGS      := -D__ASSEMBLY__ $(BOOTCFLAGS) -traditional -nostdinc
arch/s390/kernel/Makefile
EXTRA_AFLAGS    := -traditional
arch/s390/lib/Makefile
EXTRA_AFLAGS := -traditional
arch/s390/math-emu/Makefile
EXTRA_AFLAGS := -traditional
arch/sh/boot/compressed/Makefile_32
EXTRA_AFLAGS    := -traditional
arch/sh/boot/compressed/Makefile_64
EXTRA_AFLAGS    := -traditional

Would their removal break something ?
