Or just apply the patch from here:
http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2012-April/165871.html
And skip tons of pain for all the libffi consumers at the tiny cost of a
stub symbol.
Hm, no links to the patch in the archives. Well, I'll attach it again,
since I still have it sitting around in my libffi git checkout.
And note that whatever you do, F-19 is open for doing it now - you don't
need to wait until F-18 ships...
