RE: OSX 10.6 libffi updates
Apple may not care, but I'm sure there are still users.
10.6 may not exist for PowerPC, but 10.5, 10.4, etc. do.
(Notice that it may not reach the levels of e.g. Linux (alpha, mips, sparc, hppa, ia64...),
Darwin does run on a somewhat impressive "5" architectures: ppc, ppc64, x86, amd64, arm.)
