The clang behavior is sometimes really weird, and extremely hard to
debug, when uninitialized variables are used even if the value cancels
out in an expression. It also depends on optimization level, etc.
-ftrivial-auto-var-init=zero makes the behavior
predictable. Unfortunately it also needs a really weird "enable"
option, and it issues a warning about an unused command line option on
link, which may get promoted to error, so silence the warning before
doing anything else.

Many many developers all over the net respect NASM for what it is:
a widespread (thus netwide), portable (thus netwide!), very flexible
and mature assembler tool with support for many output formats (thus netwide!!).
Now we have good news for you: NASM is licensed under the "simplified"
(2-clause) BSD license.
This means its development is open to even wider society of programmers
wishing to improve their lovely assembler.
