Branch: pkgsrc-2008Q1, Version: 2.02nb1, Package name: nasm-2.02nb1, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

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.

   Add a patch from the "nasm" GIT repository to fix a crash triggered by
   certain assembler files. This closes the security hole reported in SA30594
   (which is IMHO highly debatable).
