Comment(by PHO):
Replying to [comment:16 trommler]:
> In the case of {{{UseSystemLibFFI=="YES"}}} the correct linker flags
will be set as part of {{{rts/libs.depend}}}, hence the empty definition
for {{{LIBFFI_LIBS}}}.
I get it. But then what about {{{FFILibDir}}}? If I understand this
correctly, {{{rts/libs.depend}}} contains only {{{-l}}} flags so
{{{-L$(FFILibDir)}}} won't be passed to the linker.
Apart from that, {{{$(rts_LD_OPTS)}}} seems to be ignored too. Or am I
missing some point?
