>Description:
Actually would eventully love to get gnucash going here, and I'm up to g-wrap which wants libffi.  Receive the message:

configure: error: "libffi has not been ported to i386-pc-interix3."
configure: error: /bin/sh './configure' failed for libffi
*** Error code 1

Just wondering if there is a techical issue that prevents this or if it is on the horizon for the future some time.

Thanks very much,

Boyd 

PS  Not sure how I should catagorize bug reports for Interix port.
>How-To-Repeat:
cd /usr/pkgsrc/devel/g-wrap
bmake install

or

cd /usr/pkgsrc/devel/libffi
bmake install

 As a first shot, maybe try this replacement for patch-aa:
 (the first hunk is the new bit)

State-Changed-Why:
I proposed a preliminary patch (probably not enough, but definitely needed)
back in 2009. I don't have Interix to test...
