We recommend MinGW over Visual C++ 2005 as we have found it to be more

3. Installing NASM from source (DOS-Windows-OS/2/OpenWatcom)
============================================================
NASM has been reported to build correctly with OpenWatcom 1.7 on and
OS/2 platform. The NASM developers have not tested this on any other
platforms.
A WMAKE make file is provided:
> wmake -f Mkfiles\openwcom.mak <platform>
... where <platform> is "dos", "win32" or "os2".
NASM is known to NOT compile correctly using OpenWatcom 1.7.1 as a
cross compiler with a Linux host (OpenWatcom bug report 751.)
