Fine, having a look at the log file tells me that the attribute thing 
has gone.
The failure is now in the executing step of the test case.
Here you have to take gdb at hand to find out more.

Try with the -O0 tests. Build one of them and run it with gdb. This 
should tell you what is happening.

You can take the build commandline out of the logfile. Additionally when 
you run the test, you need to point LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the built libffi.so.
