The build system is under construction; sorry for the failed builds
and other problems.  I hope I can at least fix BUILD-FROM-SCRATCH
today.  In the meantime, you can try

cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/nfs/unsafe/cvs-repository/src-master co -D 
2008-02-08 gforth

which should build fine (I have tried it on a Linux-AMD64 box).

Anyway, the issue about libffi or ffcall is that I am trying to get
away from having the configuration influence what's in the engine or
the kernel (because that leads to cycles in the Makefile, and other
problems).  Currently (all of?) the cycles are gone from the Makefile,
but as a result, these configuration things do no longer necessarily
result in engines or kernels that contain this stuff.

You should still be able to get these in manually, e.g., by touching
prim and kernel/main.fs, but with the build troubles that's going to
be a rough ride.
