The latest version of Perl complains about an unescaped brace in a
regexp and states that it will be a fatal error in Perl 5.30. Fix it
now before it becomes a problem.

The rarely used 64-bit absolute load instruction (what gas calls
movabsq) needs to be declared ABS if we are in relative mode, which is
normally the case.

There are some gotchas in how immediates and pointers are loaded in
64-bit mode and how they interact with optimization. Document those
cases.

Bullet points are considered paragraphs, so our documentation compiler

Clean up the 2.13.02 release notes: we don't need to list every single
subcase where we would crash, as it is not really relevant to the
user.

When using the -MW option, enclose whitespace-containing filenames in
double quotes. There are probably quite a few other things we ought
to know how to do...

* CPPFLAGS is a user variable and should be respected
when compiling .c files. Think of -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2.
* Pass ALL_CFLAGS when linking too. This is recommended
for certain edge cases (-flto)
* Use DESTDIR instead of INSTALLROOT for staging dir
Every other build system (Automake, CMake, Meson) uses
DESTDIR. This integrates better into distro and other
build systems that have standard hooks for DESTDIR.
* $(MAKE) -C <dir> is better than cd'ing into a <dir>
* Use Autoconf's ${docdir} and ${htmldir} for installing
the documentation. This makes handling documentation
easier and respects user choice.

Win32::Registry is obsolete, we need to use Win32::TieRegistry on
current platforms.
GhostScript uses # rather than = on Windows, it seems.
Try to find GhostScript in the registry and add it to the PATH.

If we open in a very wide window, split the text into columns so it
can actually be conveniently read.
Also, change the body margin to 8px, as that seems to be the more
common browser default.

If we want to print the document, we really want each chapter to start

Add a file local.css which is referenced *after* nasmdoc.css, thus
overriding the latter. This file intentionally has no actual content,
which means it can be overridden locally for any desired content,
e.g. indexing into web fonts or overriding any of the style.

Make the yellow highlight for the link target a little bit less
