That’s my guess too, based on the configure output from libffi.

...
"LD=/usr/bin/ld"  "NM=/usr/bin/nm -B"  "RANLIB=ranlib”
...

The easiest path forward would be to set TOOLS_PREFIX in Makefile.inc1 to an appropriate prefix (see XMAKE in Makefile.inc1, etc). I suspect if you add this variable to NXBENV and tweak it appropriately, things will just work.

Cheers!
