They are evaluated very early on, in the enable language. To add support for .S and .s you can do it by creating a new language. For example see Java:

CMakeDetermineJavaCompiler.cmake CMakeJavaInformation.cmake
CMakeJavaCompiler.cmake.in CMakeTestJavaCompiler.cmake

Also the same files for CMakeCXX*.cmake. IF you created a CMakeASM* set of files, it should work. The .cmake.in one is the one that sets the CMAKE_(LANG)_SOURCE_FILE_EXTENSIONS.
