Gregory P. Smith added the comment:
http://bugs.python.org/issue17245 filed to track the stack alignment issue.
The only reason i set this as release blocker is to let a release manager
decide which of these two issues to proceed with for 2.7.4 and 3.2.4 (and
3.3.1).

Matthias Klose added the comment:
before the updates, ... there seem to be two test failures on sparc solaris.
the local libffi/src/sparc/v8.S change was integrated upstream, so I don't yet
what could cause these failures. or did they fail before too?

Maybe Modules/_ctypes/libffi in 2.7, 3.2 and 3.3 branches should be updated?

Ronald Oussoren added the comment:
libffi_osx is not a copy of the regular libffi, but a (fairly old) fork. I
don't know how far the two branches have diverged.
An important feature of liffi_osx is that is compiles cleanly when all intel
and ppc related sources are compiled with '-arch ppc
