The important part is the "--with-openssl-opt=no-asm" configure 
option as shown in the patch linked.  If you are using your own 
./configure string, not the one from misc/GNUmakefile, make sure 
to use this option as well.

Also please make sure you are using clean OpenSSL directory.

It looks like I was mistaken and this is not something nginx can 
easily handle on Windows.  (On UNIX, you just compile OpenSSL 
yourself, and then run nginx's ./configure with appropriate 
--with-cc-opt and --with-ld-opt.)

If needed, you still can compile OpenSSL on Windows yourself as 
long as you use the same prefix as nginx expects.  That is, run 
nginx's configure:

./configure --with-openssl=/path/to/openssl ...

Then compile OpenSSL yourself as documented in INSTALL.W32, and 
using "openssl" prefix:

cd /path/to/openssl
perl Configure VC-WIN32 no-asm --prefix=openssl
ms\do_ms
nmake -f ms\ntdll.mak
nmake -f ms\ntdll.mak install

Then cd back to nginx and run nmake.

It should be enough to use the "--with-openssl-opt=no-asm" option 
though, as recommended above.
