Ok, I will think about how to solve that. We have at least a flag 
(FFI_CLOSURES) which tells if closures are implemented.
I may can use this flag to decide whether to xfail or not.
Another way could be splitting ffi_call and closure tests into two 
separate directories.

Give me some time, and/or file a bug :)

Thanks for the suggestion.
