Will distributions of GHC be using a system libffi which still has the bugs you mentioned?
My inclination would be to use the system libffi unless this option is precluded due to bugs. By this standard I believe the only GHC HQ binary distributions which would include an unreleased libffi would those for ARM and AArch64. Cheers, - Ben
