[issue26192] python3 k1om dissociation permanence: libffi

[Ned Deily]

Ned Deily  added the comment:

Thanks for the patch and sorry for the long delay in replying.  As you may 
know, as of Python 3.7, we no longer "vendor" a copy of the libffi source in 
Python source releases; you now have to use either a system-supplied version of 
libffi or otherwise supply your own copy of the library.  So, if the changes to 
libffi are still needed, you would need to pursue them with the libffi project.

[issue26192] python3 k1om dissociation permanence: libffi

[ƦOB COASTN]

New submission from ƦOB COASTN:

initial patch attached for Python-3.4.4
This patch requires rework.

I am willing to implement the __MIC__ or __KNC__ into a new patch if this is in 
fact the route forward that seems optimal.

Thanks,
Rob
