In general you need the ordinary libffi API ported if you want to be
able to call JNI methods. You don't need any of libffi to call CNI
methods. The libffi closure API is needed for the interpreter.
FYI libffi fully works on Windows, at least according to
configure.host (we set libgcj_interpreter=yes for all x86 targets).
