Public bug reported:
Libffi (3.0.9) does not explicitly support calls to variadic functions -
however for most architectures they tend to work.
For armhf this is not the case - variadic calls drop back to the armel ABI; to
support this I added a new API to libffi to explicitly support calling variadic
functions.
The attached patch was accepted upstream and will land sometime after
3.0.10; we might want to merge it in sooner if we need armhf support
sooner.
Note that programs that use libffi will also need changing for their
variadic calls to work - but nothing that already works should break.
