yasm vs nasm differences

is there a section that does an outline of places where yasm/nasm differ ?  i 
think such a thing would be quite handy ... we've been trying to get all 
packages in Gentoo working with yasm rather than nasm ...

one of the places we noticed was %include handling.  this is half-mentioned 
offhand in the yasm documentation.

yasm:
 - %include will not search $PWD
 - paths given to -I will have a path separator appended to it
nasm:
 - %include will search $PWD before any -I paths
 - paths given to -I will not have a path separator appended to it

personally i think the yasm behavior is saner on both counts.
