    x86: fix clang .macro retention check
    
    There were two problems here: The first closing parentheses got parsed
    by make to end the $(call invocation, and the escaping of the quotes
    wasn't right either, as there's nowhere they would get un-escaped.
    
    Furthermore there appears to be a puzzling problem with \n getting
    expanded to an actual newline too early in some environments. Convert
    these to semicolons at the same time.
