Thanks for the suggested patch and sorry that it has not been replied to 
earlier. As of Python 3.7, the libffi source for Unix-y platforms is no longer 
"vendored" in Python source releases; building ctypes now requires an external 
copy of libffi, either as supplied by the system, a third-party distribution, 
or by building yourself.  If changes to setup.py are still needed to build with 
a current external libffi, please feel free to reopen this issue with a pull 
request against the current master branch.
