In Modern English, it is used, particularly in legal papers, to draw the attention of the reader to a certain (side) aspect or detail of the subject being addressed. While NB is also often used in academic writing, note is a common substitute.
I suggest to replace NB: with Note: in GHC's error messages.
I saw NB in this recently added error message:

• NB: ‘~’ used to be built-in syntax but now is a regular type operator
exported from Data.Type.Equality and Prelude.
If you are using a custom Prelude, consider re-exporting it.
