Numerous attempts have been made to get the libffi maintainers to cut a new release but sadly no progress has been made in over six months of trying.

Has anyone followed the process described in the somewhat poorly named https://wiki.haskell.org/Taking_over_a_package to try to add one or more maintainers upstream? If the current maintainer(s) object to that, would it make sense to produce a proper fork on Hackage?
