I am compiling with GNU binutils 2.24, GCC 5.5.0, GNU make 4.2.1. 

When attempting to build 3.6.x, the build is successful except for the fact that the _ctypes module fails to build. This of course causes the install to fail.

Failed to build these modules:
_ctypes

I do have libffi-dev installed through OpenCSW.

This is due to it not finding the external libffi I have.
