Can you give us your platform, platform version, compiler, and compiler version? Also, the entire output of "make install" (or whatever make command you're running).

Thanks.

Building _ctypes with the bundled copy of libffi is deprecated since Python 3.6, and is not possible in 3.7. If you need the ctypes module, please install libffi separately and make sure the Python build process can find it. If you build libffi yourself, please report any warnings at github.com/libffi/libffi.
