> Upgrade to 3.7 fixed the main problem for me, or at least on the hardware/arch I use.

For Python, we should try to identify the required backport, or upgrade libffi in Python 3.6. But I'm scared by Modules/_ctypes/libffi/ since it's unclear to me if we patched it or not...

IHMO the best option for FreeBSD would be to change how FreeBSD builds Python 3.6 to use --with-system-ffi (use recent libffi rather than Python old copy).
