In INSTALL, there is this awkward use of (optionally):
The Netwide Assembler (NASM) is used to build the (optionally)
assembler modules of OpenSSL.
Which of these is the best fix?
(1) The Netwide Assembler (NASM) is used to (optionally) build the
assembler modules of OpenSSL.
(2) The Netwide Assembler (NASM) is (optionally) used to build the
assembler modules of OpenSSL.
(3) The Netwide Assembler (NASM) is used to build the (optional)
assembler modules of OpenSSL.
To be blunt: these instructions need a lot more fixing than just grammar.
NASM isn't mentioned anywhere in our source tree except here and in
tools/dev/build-svn-deps-win.pl so probably the right fix is to delete
this item from INSTALL and perhaps update the comments in
tools/dev/build-svn-deps-win.pl .
