#438 MacOS X Intel Compilation Broken With NASM

[Johannes Schickel]

When compiling FLAC 1.3.1 for OS X i686 I get the following errors when NASM is installed (and --disable-asm-optimizations is not passed on configure time):

Found the following patches:

https://github.com/audacity/audacity/blob/master/lib-src/libflac/mac-asm-fixes.patch
https://gist.github.com/2bits/1249214
https://gist.github.com/trynity/6128123

Apparently it was fixed in other projects, but not in the upstream.

P.S. I have no idea about LINKD change in the last link
