FYI I also created an issue to suggest to avoid ctypes to get the glibc
version in pip ;-)
https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/6675
In the past, we reported multiple times issues to pip when ctypes is not
avialable (for different reasons), but it seems to be a lost battle:
ctypes is commonly used (directly by pip, or by pip dependencies), so
instead we try to ensure that ctypes is built on buildbots.

I am trying to compile Python 3 on Centos7 and I am getting
"ModuleNotFoundError: No module named '_ctypes'"
I'm not sure that you are asking on the right mailing list. Anyway.
Red Hat provides precompiled Python 3.6 for Centos 7:
https://www.softwarecollections.org/en/scls/rhscl/rh-python36/
About your error, you likely miss some header files, like libffi-devel:
sudo yum install -y libffi-devel
That issue has been reported some times before as well at bpo.
Maybe providing a proper error message for the missing libffi headers would be
good, as the current one is quite cryptic.
