I've read in earlier posts that you were concerned about the intel
port because of something with libff (libffi).
It's ffcall actually - ffi is another library that does the same thing.

I use the avcall() function to build up a stack frame with which to
call the C function objc_msgSend(). Because it relies on low-level
ABI details like stack and argument alignment, it's more troublesome
to port than a typical Cocoa or Carbon app that uses high-level
library calls.
Does this version mean, you have have a solution to this and fixed
or implemented it already?
It's a potential solution. I don't have an Intel Mac to test whether
it runs or not, but I've got the build procedure pretty much ironed
out. And, I have a good idea about what the potential problem areas
might be.
Note that one problem has already been reported and fixed. There's a
newer ShuX snapshot on the web site:
