<title>Installation of Libffi</title>
<note>
<para>Similar to GMP, libffi builds with optimizations specific
to the proccesor in use. If building for another system, export
CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS to specify a generic build for your architecture.
If this is not done, all applications that link to libffi will trigger
Illegal Operation Errors.</para>

<para>Modify the Makefile to install headers into the standard
<filename class="directory">/usr/include</filename> directory instead of
<filename class="directory">/usr/lib/libffi-3.2.1/include</filename>.</para>
