Changes between Version 2 and Version 3 of Ticket #61170, comment 14

v2	v3
20	20	It is well known, as you point out, that the libffi assembler needs are advanced in nature, and no doubt the 32bit darwin part of it suffers more than most. We are trying to see if we can tweak it to build with the system toolchain, as otherwise our bootstrapping is complicated.

22		We could consider salting away libffi 3.2.1 in a directory and building some llvm version against it (3.7?) that gets us to a current libffi version. But I'm hoping we don't have to do that as it just adds ever more complexity to supporting and bootstrapping these older systems that I would live to avoid.
