I am following the instructions on the web site for building in MSYS2 and
I'm running into an error with the libffi library.

 

These are the instructions I'm using

http://wiki.gnustep.org/index.php/Installation_MSYS2

 

and this is the error I get running ./configure for base

checking FFI library usage...       0 [main] conftest (34696) child_copy:
