Oops... it looks like OSI smoked something especially bad this time, I'm afraid. This license looks like someone took his time to collect every single problematic clause. Debian-legal may provide you with a clause-by-clause analysis, but let me point out just one particular gem: the moment you use openwatcom to compile any work-related piece of software (thus not "Personal Use"), you need to make the source of openwatcom publicly available for 12 months.
