>An assembler for x86 and x86_64 instruction sets I don't think this makes sense, does it?
1) It is a Dependency for Phoronix-test-suite as they use it in their benchmarks. 2) It can also be used on other architectures for validating X86 or X86_64 assembler code to see if it compiles.

Does anyone actually do that? It's only keyworded on arm64 + ppc64 outside of amd64/x86 and even those feel like a mistake.
As I said https://www.phoronix-test-suite.com/ wants it installed as they use it in their benchmarks. It is one of the install-dependencies for their tests. Without it the tests I was doing would not run. See https://openbenchmarking.org/result/2303193-NE-2303170NE99 for one of the Benchmarks I ran.
sounds like it can be used to cross-compile code just fine. i don't see an issue with keywording this anywhere.

Sure. The reason to be skeptical was if it was being pulled in unconditionally by another packsge when it wasn't being used anyway.
