The libffi license is basically a BSD license, that's no problem at all:

I am not a proponent of third-party dependencies.

I am not a proponent of reimplementing everything but the kitchen sink
because of other people's adversity to reusing existing solutions.

Indeed, but even leaving the very unpleasant license aside, depending on third 
party libraries
depending on libc is an issue on linux and an even bigger issue on windows not 
to mention rare
platforms like amiga or msdos. While using libffi might work for the platforms 
you are mainly using,
for most other platforms third party dependencies are a pain.

My point too.
