I did some work to make ctypes+libffi compacter and liberal. http://openlook.org/svnpublic/ctypes-compactffi/ (svn) I removed sources/gcc and put sources/libffi copied from gcc 4.0.2. And removed all automake-related build processes and integrated them into setup.py. There's still aclocal.m4 in sources/libffi. But it is just identical to libffi's acinclude.m4 which looks liberal.
