I do have yasm 1.1.0 installed...
  Checking for yasm ... yasm 
I shamefully bypassed the problem by not enabling qtx.

I do make distclean, svn was upped a few hours ago, but my configure is "complicated"; 
I compile everything (mplayer and the libs it depends on) in a specific directory.
So I must also use some --extra-cflags, --extra-ldflags and --extra-libs params...
And yes, I also had to disable win32dll.
