-----------------------+----------------------------------------------------
 The libffi failed to compile with the error:
 "configure: error: source directory already configured; run "make
 distclean" there first"

 To solve this one must specify the full path when invoking the configure
 script.
 To do this the part of the "ghc-xxx/libffi/Makefile" should be changed to:

 from
             CC=$(WhatGccIsCalled) $(SHELL) configure \
 to
             CC=$(WhatGccIsCalled) $(SHELL) `pwd`/configure \
