Hello,
My name is Luis Lavena, maintainer of a Ruby distribution for Windows
named RubyInstaller.
I had email the list in the past about build or test issues with
libffi. Thank you all for the replies and the suggestions.
This time I wanted to consolidate information about libffi codebase
location and any website information.
Right now, using the atgreen repository at GitHub I can successfully
compile libffi 3.0.10 from it.
However, I cannot run test from it:
$ make check

make[1]: Nothing to be done for `check'.

if /bin/sh -c "$runtest --version" > /dev/null 2>&1; then \
exit_status=0; l='libffi'; for tool in $l; do \
if $runtest --tool $tool --srcdir $srcdir ; \
then :; else exit_status=1; fi; \
done; \
else echo "WARNING: could not find \`runtest'" 1>&2; :;\
fi; \
exit $exit_status

There is no "runtest", any hint or pointer on getting that missing requirement?
I would like to run these test to be able to provide a set of binaries
for Windows platform so we can use libffi properly in some projects.
Thank you in advance.
