Overall, the document is horribly inconsistent about indentation,

%xdefine is an early-binding %define (%define being late-binding.)
There is nothing "enhanced" about it, it just specifies a different
policy. Call it a "resolving define" instead.

Decouple forward references from optimization
...
Users who wish to control the level of optimization can
continue to specify -O0, -O1, or -Ox,
where x can be the letter itself, or any number > 1.
However, even with optimization turned off,
NASM will always make enough passes to resolve
forward references. As a result, INCBIN is now the only
item left in the critical expressions list, although TIMES
still has its own constant value check.

smaller output files than ps2pdf.
