[Nasm-devel] Bad line endings in configure file in zip file

[H. Peter Anvin]

It isn't an error; the .zip file has DOS-style file endings because it 
is intended primarily to be used on DOS/Windows and similar systems.

On Unix, you can extract it with "unzip -a" or (better) use the .tar.xz 
file.
