This package historically belongs to the gnustep herd, but ffcall
support in
gnustep has been deprecated for some time now in favor of libffi (in
fact the
USE-flag may go away soon)
Also, I do not have the time to work on it, although it requires a bit
of work:
* switch to "new" upstream (recommending to grab CVS tarballs) at
http://www.gnu.org/software/libffcall/
* a bunch of opened issues (parallel make/install, ldflags, execstacks,
...):
https://bugs.gentoo.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=ffcall
So if you are interested, please add yourself to metadata.xml (and
remove
gnustep herd) and start bug sqashing. As a bonus, you will still have a
backup
herd (common-lisp), thoug a real maintainer would be great
