Please keep replies on-list.
And? Your points below don't give any rational that means NASM is good
or bad to include. There are lots of things that only a few folk use in
cygwin already - i.e. robots.
Other things also build smoothly - ie squid, grep, ls, sh-utils, bash,
to name a few. So that's also not a good criterion.
As for the licence, they must be open source, but that's all.
