1.) Fix broken "yasm" version check which only accepts version numbers
like "a.b.c.d" but not like "a.b.c" and therefore fails with
Yasm 1.2.0. This probably affects other platforms (e.g. Linux
as well).
2.) Use "-R" instead of non-portable "-rpath" linker option.
The build under Solaris 10 fails now during the build phase and not
already in the configuration phase.
