btw, speaking of yasm, a not too long while ago i realized that configure
simply compiles without yasm optimizations if yasm isnt installed
i noticed it just because x264 doesnt and warns, we should do the same
this issue alone weighs heavier than any difference between inline and
yasm. Because loosing the optimizations without the user knowing is really
bad.
