Hi Henning, I can't reproduce this error you are seeing. How are you installing the compiler?

I used this archive: https://downloads.haskell.org/ghc/9.4.1-rc1/ghc-9.4.0.20220721-x86_64-deb11-... $ tar xf ghc-9.4.0.20220721-x86_64-deb11-linux.tar.lz $ cd ghc-9.4.0.20220721-x86_64-unknown-linux/ $ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/ghc-9.4.0 $ sudo make install

GHC should use the in-tree libffi which is the correct version.

Interesting, maybe it is not used because it has wrong permissions, like some other files.
