Yhc needs libffi support, and it's much better and cleaner to have it completely integrated with the core.
I wouldn't say it "needs" it, it would be possible to manage without it, though it's certainly very nice to have it.
> Libffi support has greatly improved
over the past few weeks, and it will continue to get better. As it's required at the moment it's getting a lot of work and testing, if it wasn't then it would no doubt become neglegeted and not work on anywhere near as many platforms - a very bad thing IMHO.
There is definitely a certain logic to this and if you're happy to get it working then that's great. I simply saying that I'm not absolutely wedded to using it for the core if that turns out to be a problem. But since you're saying "no problem" I'm happy to leave it as it is :-)
