It seems to be a bug in the snapshot of libffi that we're using. I've 
copied the version of darwin_closure.S from the GCC CVS to our tree, 
and this solves my problems. I had to disable the .data section from 
the assembly file, libffi won't build with it.

Struct returns still don't work, but that might be unrelated.
