jmmv 6fbafc115e Update to 0.98.37 (really, rename nasm-devel to nasm). This version is far
more complete than 0.98, plus homogenizing the package in a single one will
save us from conflicts during bulk builds (and during manual builds too).

The Netwide Assembler, NASM, is an 80x86 assembler designed for portability
and modularity. It supports a range of object file formats, including Linux
a.out and ELF, NetBSD/FreeBSD, COFF, Microsoft 16-bit OBJ and Win32. It will
also output plain binary files. Its syntax is designed to be simple and easy
to understand, similar to Intel's but less complex.
