Hi, I have noticed that not too long ago libffi was added to SBo. It was included in the past and removed on Slackware 13.0 release with the following note in the changelog:
libraries/libffi: Removed; conflicts with gcc-java-4.3.3. This is still true for the newest gcc-java package. There's one thing though, which gcc-java lacks (and libffi has). It's $libdir/pkgconfig/libffi.pc, which is needed by some software[0] at build time. Another difference is that libffi inside gcc-java seems to be older, judging from .so version number. My suggestion would be to add libffi to Slackware or at least include libffi.pc into gcc-java.
