When I last tried ffitest from mainline a few days ago I got the following
failures:

Test failure: /cvs/gcc/libffi/src/ffitest.c line 497

These are the long double return value tests.

Test failure: /cvs/gcc/libffi/src/ffitest.c line 529

These are the float arg tests.

Test failure: /cvs/gcc/libffi/src/ffitest.c line 910
Test failure: /cvs/gcc/libffi/src/ffitest.c line 911
Test failure: /cvs/gcc/libffi/src/ffitest.c line 912
Test failure: /cvs/gcc/libffi/src/ffitest.c line 913

These is the structure test 8.  There are also two unaligned access
messages during this test.

Andreas.
