Non distro builds now require a new version of libbfd, so skip the test
if the library is too old.
The grep test isn't a strong as the feature test in
test-libbfd-threadsafe.c, but there seems to be precedent for feature
testing this way here and it's good enough for the build-test rule. If
the function exists but returns an error it will be picked up by the
feature test when attempting the build.
