Is this ffcall library being maintained now? The best I can find is: Last modified: 29 January 2001 and the only PowerPC version in the PLATFORMS file is for IBM's RS6000. It doesn't compile on OSX, so before I ask the author, I'm interested in finding out why this is considered to be "better" than dlcompat. It's going to take me a bit of work to find out if dlcompat still works, so I'll just ask if it does? The fink libraries are definitely what causes 0.6.2 to be slow, so I'll need to figure out how to use dlcompat without fink, but is that going to be a waste of my time?
