Chris, Does that mean Nervar can be used with a Japanense made JIS taper spindle or a Japanese made Suntour Mighty-Comp spindle (which is the same taper as Campagnolo)?

I'll would have to measure to be certain, but I have an old Nervar Star BB which (without actually measuring) resembles Campagnolo; and I have an early '80s Nervar crankset from a Peugeot PGN-10 that uses a spindle which resembles (again, without actually measuring) a JIS taper piece.

What's the story?
