[XviD-devel] xvid-1.0.2 x86_64 asm port

[Andre Werthmann]

I have portet all of the x86_asm code to x86_64.
The target in xvid is ARCH_IS_X86_64.

Also the QPEL part of xvid wasnt working on a x86_64 target, I fixed the 
segfault problem. (This is in cvs stable now.)

On my athlon64 3000+ box with the plain C version (fixed) I get ~6fps encoding 
a 720x576 with standard settings but qpel enabled.
With the new assembler code I get ~25fps.

I changed the configure.in script to detect a x86_64 target and set the proper 
assembler with the proper flags. The assembler used is yasm (needs to be >= 
yasm-r1154) with the flags "-f elf -m amd64" under linux.
