Andreas' recent patch enabled Java on powerpc-darwin, which was good,
but also on x86-darwin, which isn't good because libffi hasn't been
ported to it yet so the build fails.  This disables it for x86-darwin.

Tested by building a cross to i386-darwin from powerpc-darwin (with
several other patches to follow), and by configuring a native on
powerpc-darwin.

Well, I was a bit direct here. If you (or anyone else) intend to do a libffi port for x86-darwin, I have a patch in testing for powerpc-darwin libffi and structure support, especially for closures. Just in case, to reduce bug hunting work. And reduce double effort.

I'll post it as soon as I got a review on my testcases I wrote for.

Regards,
Andreas
