I have no idea, now that you mention it.  The src directory doesn't have any
source for nm in it.  But if I run

  dpkg-deb --contents alsa-lib_1.0.14rc2-1_i386.deb

it lists /usr/bin/nm (not to mention /usr/bin/ld, /usr/bin/strip, and a link
/usr/bin/gcc pointing to gcc-4.1).

I did the usual configure, make, and then

  checkinstall -D make install

where checkinstall is from sid.  It made the deb file but failed to install
it because of the conflicts.
