[oe] libffi-native 3.0.9 fails to build on at least x86_64

[Robert Schuster]

Hi,
I tried building libffi-native on an Ubuntu 10.04 amd64 box (during
angstrom build for pandaboard) and it fails. Investigation found out
that during libffi's configure it will symlink 'src/x86/ffitarget.h' to
'include/ffitarget.h'. Unfortunately this will create a broken softlink
because 'src' and 'include' are on the same directory level. I manually
corrected the softlink to '../src/x86/ffitarget.h' and then I could
continue the build.

Clearly this is not what should happen. Anyone an idea why ffi does that?

(For testing purposes I tried brand new libffi 3.0.10rc8 and it shows
exactly the same error).

Regards,
Robert
