[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] don't error out if OpenMP is too old (#1433)

[Panu Matilainen]

NAK for littering the source with #ifdef's around every #pragma we may ever add.

The job of a configure script is to figure out a way how to make the software run on a system and bail out if it can't, but automatically disabling OpenMP is only when it's not explicitly enabled with --enable-openmp.
I just don't think fiddling with the configure logic to get it *just so* with all possible cases is worth anybody's time... 

It's quite clear people expect to build the latest rpm in all manner of strange configurations that we're not necessarily prepared to support. Having to manually disable something intentionally sends a certain message - openmp might be optional for now but might not always be that way.
