I'm attaching the patch for an update from the trunk; it passes the ctypes tests and the libffi testsuite on i486-linux-gnu.

We should revert the following chunk for configure.ac to generate the Makefile's again, so that we are able to run the testsuite at least with dejagnu:

-AC_CONFIG_FILES(include/Makefile include/ffi.h Makefile testsuite/Makefile man/Makefile libffi.pc)
+AC_CONFIG_FILES(include/ffi.h)
