JamVM

Hi,

The problem is you're trying to build on AMD64.  This is the only
platform which needs libffi.  On my AMD64 system I've installed libffi
from the distribution, and configure has no problems in finding this.

From your message you've compiled libffi yourself.  I guess it's in a
"non-standard" place and so configure can't find it.  I've no idea how
to make configure find it, beyond putting it where configure expects.

Disabling libffi with --disable-ffi won't work because AMD64 requires
it (and it's the only platform which has it enabled by default).  I
will make configure bomb out on AMD64 in this case.

Anybody know how to get configure to find it?  If not, I'll look at it toni=
ght.

Rob.
