Failed to Compile Rime under 64bit Linux

Error message during "make":

Linking CXX shared library ../lib/librime.so
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/local/lib/libyaml-cpp.a(parser.cpp.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 
against `.bss' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC

As far as I know, there are two patches which can fix this problem.
But I don't know where to get it.
Sorry for posting in English, but I have no Chinese input currently.

Sorry, messages about the patch has been lost since the wiki named 'IBusRime' 
went out of service, reporting 500 - Internal Server Error.

Thus I created a new Wiki page with the same content but a different name here:
http://code.google.com/p/rimeime/wiki/RimeWithIBus

By default, yaml-cpp builds into a static library(.a), compiled without the 
`-fPIC` flag; that why users of x64 linux had problem linking to it.
Later I found a solution suggested by yaml-cpp's author, that is, to turn on 
this cmake option (see Wiki 
RimeWithIBus#ibus-rime_on_Ubuntu_12.04_安裝手記):
{{{
cmake -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON ..
}}}
so that a shared library `yaml-cpp.so` is built and is then linked to Rime 
instead of the static library.

I haven't tested this approach though; hope it will work for you.
