libffi on beaglebone black (fbsd 10)?

[George W. Dinolt]

Hi all:

I have been playing around with the Beaglebone Black. I have FreeBSD 10 
running on it. ( Thanks Tim Kientzle for crochet support).  I have been 
able to build bash, python-2.7.5 and several other programs on it. 
Several programs (specifically db42 and its dependents) don't compile 
with clang 3.3 on the beaglebone, but do so with the gcc.  More data 
available if someone is interested.

The bash, python and other programs run but python fails on importing 
ctypes, which, in turn, depends on libffi interface. Python raises a 
"Signal 6" (SIGABRT)  signal and quits. As an experiment,  I tried 
building libffi from devel/ports but the "make check" program in the 
build directory FAILS on all tests.

Does anyone have any clues as to how to get libffi working? 
Unfortunately my real work doesn't give me time to debug this.

Thanks,
G Dinolt
