New description:
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 \
}}}
