Thanks! I have done a test build in Fedora's buildsystem: (Note this is a "bootstrap" build without shared libraries.)

Ok I did a more normal build today with shared libs and ran the testsuite too:

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=3251246

The test results for x86_64 are: "0 unexpected failures" :-) but there are "17 unexpected failures" for i686:

Unexpected failures: ffi/should_run 1679 [bad exit code] (normal) ffi/should_run 2469 [bad exit code] (normal) ffi/should_run 2594 [bad exit code] (normal) ffi/should_run 4038 [bad exit code] (normal) ffi/should_run 4221 [bad exit code] (normal) ffi/should_run fed001 [bad exit code] (normal) ffi/should_run ffi006 [bad exit code] (normal) ffi/should_run ffi007 [bad exit code] (normal) ffi/should_run ffi008 [bad exit code] (normal) ffi/should_run ffi011 [bad exit code] (normal) ffi/should_run ffi013 [bad exit code] (normal) ffi/should_run ffi014 [bad exit code] (threaded1) ffi/should_run ffi019 [bad exit code] (normal) ffi/should_run ffi020 [bad exit code] (normal) rts 4850 [bad stdout] (normal) rts 5250 [bad exit code] (normal) rts T4059 [bad exit code] (normal)

from http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/getfile?taskID=3251249&name=build.log . Note the Fedora build is patched to use system libffi.

The packages can be downloaded and installed as described in the previous mail from http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/scratch/petersen/task_3251246

This looks like breakage in foreign import "wrapper". That's pretty serious - please open a ticket, and include as many details as possible. Cheers, Simon
