Until very recently (Christmas), the libffi cvs repository was not
used at all.  Primary development happens in the GCC svn repository.
Over Christmas I pulled this code into libffi cvs to make it simpler
to do a standalone release (for standalone configure has to be a
little bit different).

Not really, but I suppose I will update libffi cvs periodically.  If
someone wanted to work on this (pull in updates from GCC and do a
release), I'd support that.
