Hi Vladimir and Magnus,

How about configuring with --with-libffi=... like this:
         --with-libffi=/usr/local/Cellar/libffi/3.2.1/lib/libffi-3.2.1     
--disable-warnings-as-errors

I can compile zero vm on our macos platforms with that configuration.
That's good to know. But I agree with Vladimir that if libffi is included in the macOS SDK, then configure should be able to locate it.

Thanks.
Best regards,
Jie

     Hello
I agree modding hpp files is a bad idea Thanks for idea with setting LIBFFI_CFLAGS here is updated webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~vkempik/8248495/webrev.01/ AC_CHECK_HEADERS ignored CFLAGS for some reason, so modding header_name for it was still needed.
     This special case only applies to macos/clang when sysroot is set and no 
libffi configure options is used. (which is default case)
