I am using MSYS, not cygwin. I compiled nasm 0.98.39 myself,
when it was the most recent version.

If  the original poster cannot get an earlier cygwin nasm package, or
can't/won't compile an earlier version himself, he can force the test in
xvid's configure script to "succeed" as follows:

echo $ECHO_N "checking for nasm patch version... $ECHO_C">&6
           nasm_patch=`$nasm_prog -r | cut -d '.' -f 3 | cut -d ' ' -f 1`
           if test -z $nasm_patch ; then
              nasm_patch=-1
           fi
          ####### INSERT HARD-CODED nasm_patch HERE #######
          nasm_patch=$minimum_nasm_patch_version
          #########################################
           echo "$as_me:$LINENO: result: $nasm_patch">&5
echo "${ECHO_T}$nasm_patch">&6

If he is using the latest official release, he can try the latest daily snapshot
instead. The xvid developers may have already fixed it. If not, he can
report the problem to them for a proper fix.
